The Osgemeos exhibit at the Hirshhorn is one of the best shows of the year. They transformed the top floor of the museum into a party from outer space. Photos don’t quite capture how trippy and fun it is.

I spend a lot of time in museums, but this is a first. I met a Daddy Longlegs at the Albright-Knox Gallery who didn't seem to get the "don't touch the art" memo as he explored this Rothko. Tread softly, little one.

Flowers explode like fireworks. Wither and wilt. Juice from fresh plums. Runny. Embarrassing. Overripe. Aware of their demise. Whispers of poetry. Inaudible. No matter. There is no decay as lush as this.
