Art & Sanity

 


After a beautiful performance of the Phoenix Symphony last Saturday night, I exited through the Phoenix Convention Center which is adjacent to Symphony Hall.  I stopped to snap a photo of this huge, 90 foot tall sculpture. The artist has placed a statement in red at the bottom of the mirror.  It says "Art is a Guaranty of Sanity".  The artist is Louise Bourgeois. What a great quote. 

I posted a photo of this piece once before but that was in 2009 so it was time for a refresh.  

By the way, I'm in the reflection in the mirror.  I'm the lady in black at the foot of the stairs.

Looks like a pretty place. Many years ago there was a photo website, the mirror project, I posted there several times.

Good one, Sharon. A very discreet selfie. ;-)

RedPat beat me to it. I was going to say that's a great selfie.

I remember Louise Bourgeois for her giant creepy spider sculptures, which stood outside Rockefeller Center years ago.
