i am surprised that they felt they had to make a "comparison" exhibit. the Hilda af Klint exhibition at the Guggenheim in NYC drew the biggest crowds in the history of the museum, such that hours had to be extended, the gift shop sold out of many of its books and prints and they were cries and pleads to extend the exhibit. i saw it twice because it was so spectacularly different from other art -- even such as mondrian or klee or other spiritual abstractionist. --- i'd see her stuff again any time.
I remember you commenting when I talked about having listened to the podcast. It was a surprise to me too, given what you had said. I would have liked to have been fully immersed in the work.
