My Random Blogging Therapy
Posts go? Weird. President Russell Nelsons talk was Sooo good. It reaffirmed women are much more than simpering idiots. I loved it. It was such an empowering women's talk. It recognized women as important contributors and leaders in the gospel. I love this church so much. I asked my mother Friday what she thought of Cams picture but I was surprised when she was offended by it. It is of a dictator. It is amazing to me. He has chronicled his spiritual journey in his pieces. I was able to see some of his portraits and they are beautiful. Yesterday when I was at the Sandy library I was looking over the stuff for the contemporary art museum. What I didn't like was picture from their last fundraiser. Everything was dark and amoral. Contemporary art to me has to be much more than what I saw pictured. Everything was intentionally shocking and irreverent. Art can certainly be that but it isn't ONLY what it is I think in Salt Lake city's desire NOT to be influenced by the sublime beauty of the simplicity of the dominant church they have gone so far they've teetered off the edge.
How doesn't anyone see or get that. I love surrealist art and I know there is a segment that will love his stuff for to me are all the wrong reasons. He is in spiritual crisis but the liberal art community is not something that would help him. If anything it would hurt him.
