My Trip to the Wexner
So yesterday I tried to check out the gallery for Annie Leibovitz but found that it was closed on Mondays for some reason, so I went today before the Oval and the surrounding area became a madhouse. So I wasn't really sure what this was going to be like going in. I hoped it wouldn't be something too abstract that I'd struggle to get to 150 words for this post. I was actually pleasantly surprised. Also, as I toured that gallery I found myself becoming pretty jealous of this woman since she seemed to have taken pictures of so many notable people over the past 40 to 50 years. I think my favorite part of her pictures was that they seemed to shift back and forth between these very professional looking, staged pictures and pictures that looked more like spur of the moment shots. The pair that sticks out in my mind the most was two shots of Mick Jagger. In one he's on stage in full outfit and makeup, and then the other is of him in a robe with a towel wrapped around his head like he just stepped out of the shower. For some reason I find that comparison kinda funny.
