The Museum of Modern Love | Heather Rose

#Two4Tuesday

1) I love a good museum. The Blasket Centre is a museum of the Blasket Islands and the stories of its inhabitants until the last one left. Dunquin, Ireland. I‘ll also give a shout out to the Portland Art Museum. It‘s a fine way to spend an afternoon.

2) The tagged book was on an #AuldLangSpine list a few years ago.

Thanks for the tag @TheSpineView

Want to play @Blueroseis @LiseWorks @PageShifter

TheSpineView You're welcome and thanks for playing 3mo

LiseWorks Oh dear, I don't do museums. Mostly because they are far from me. I prefer the museum of nature. The outdoors. 😏 3mo

Recently I‘ve been thinking about whether art has to have a perspective to be art. This novel looks at a piece by real-life performance artist Marina Abramović that is all perspective. In 2010, she sat all day for 75 days in a gallery and stared directly into the eyes of anyone who sat across from her. This feat of physical and emotional endurance is just incredible. The story focused mainly on one fictional character very moved by this, but ⬇️

Megabooks I enjoyed the parts more where the author dove into Marina‘s thoughts and feelings. She did a great job in mirroring the tension building through the 75 days. A very thought-provoking #audiobook! 2y

BarbaraBB I‘ve been meaning to read this. Great review 🤍 2y

Cinfhen I loved this one / it was really memorable @BarbaraBB Great review, Meg! 2y

Moony Marina is such an impressing woman. I read her autobiography. Such an intensive life. 2y

Megabooks @BarbaraBB I definitely think you‘d enjoy it! 👍🏻 2y

Megabooks @Cinfhen agreed! I‘m still actively thinking about it. 2y

Megabooks @Moony I‘ll have to add her autobiography to my TBR because she is a fascinating person. She was on Finding Your Roots, and that was really interesting. 2y

Megabooks Oh and thank you both 😘😘 @Cinfhen @BarbaraBB 2y

vivastory What @barbarabb said, I have been meaning to read this. It sounds fascinating. Thanks for the tag! 2y

Centique My daughter wrote a paper on Abramovic and her most controversial exhibition, Rhythm 0, for her art history class. It was mind blowing to read about it. I must get to this soon! 2y

Megabooks @vivastory I think you‘d love this! 2y

Megabooks @Centique that‘s fantastic! I doubt you could talk about her art in some classrooms around where I live. Her pieces are insane, thoughtful, and phenomenal. Her POV is so intense. 2y

Someone remind me when I‘m not mowing that I need some wireless earbuds and an arm band for my phone to make mowing more book friendly? Thanks!
