My first day interning I was thrown into the process of selecting, hanging and placing art work around the gallery. Then for my second day I was able to attend the January/February show, "The Human Condition." This would be my first "behind-the-scenes" show and I found it absolutely fascinating. I was able to meet all of the artists who had their artwork out and talk with them not only about their art, but art in general and how they fit into the art scene. It was really interesting to be able to not only view the work myself and form my own opinions, but also get different inputs from everyone else who was attending the show. Not to get too far ahead of myself, but I definitly now have a greater sense of how significant art and the people behind them are which makes me more confident of making a lifestyle out of it. All and all, it was a great night.
