fav artist

So, there's no way in hell I can possibly write about who my "favorite" artist is, I have no clue and I doubt I ever will! But I am going to write about one artist who I do like, not necessarily more than any other artist, but he came to mind given recent events - Felix Gonzalez-Torres. Last summer I went to the MOMA in San Francisco and got to experience one of his pieces. This piece was one of the stacks of photo posters that you can take. So I took one as did Jonny, now my boyfriend, who I was with. Unfortunately I was only visiting Jonny for 1 day and it was before we were together. At the end of our adventurous day we parted ways for the rest of the summer and I accidentally left my Gonzalez-Torres poster in his car. It's funny because two days before I saw this piece in the museum, I was in Berkley at my bff Taylor Chang's pad and someone in her apartment had two of them hanging on the wall next to one another. I didn't know what they were from or who they were by until I went to the museum a couple days later. I'm sad because I believe Jonny and my posters are gone for good because he left them in his car and he thinks his parents probably tossed them :( I know, really bad. I was just reminded of this on Friday when I visited my other bff, Lauren Mackey, who had the same poster on her wall. It made me sad and bummed that I don't have mine anymore and that I never got to hang it. But this is probably why he came to my mind for doing this blog. Here's a pic of the one I lost, followed by other works he's done:
