During its premiere everyone paused as the fountain was supposed to come on - and it didn't! GASP!<BR/><BR/>I think it had something to do with a physical plant worker unknowingly turning off a certain valve prior - <BR/>but still. <BR/><BR/>The fountain hasn't been a fountain in so many years... it has been rather odd looking landscape architecture and a strange venue for concerts. Of course I am not confident that whatever they will build will be much better since the lowest bidder rarely does a great job. It is a state institution, after all. Great art doesn't need a great building to house it. Good lighting and clever installation can make a warehouse a great place to look at art.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8694556.post-1144442455925955992006-04-07T16:40:00.000-04:002006-04-07T16:40:00.000-04:00arnheim!!! thank you! we watched the simpson's!you...arnheim!!! thank you! we watched the simpson's!<BR/><BR/>your blog is funny. you should look at mountain man's blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8694556.post-1144439978475960632006-04-07T15:59:00.000-04:002006-04-07T15:59:00.000-04:00Hi Martin..its me.. arnheim Lieber! we met in dumb...Hi Martin..its me.. arnheim Lieber! we met in dumbo and we went to openings and hung out...(i'm trying to maintain my psuedonymity in here) <BR/>...just saying Howdy!Chris Herbeckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09821029650746754811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8694556.post-1144436924994421232006-04-07T15:08:00.000-04:002006-04-07T15:08:00.000-04:00Yup - You are a sad case of not knowing what you'v...Yup - You are a sad case of not knowing what you've got even AFTER it is gone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8694556.post-1144387014294907822006-04-07T01:16:00.000-04:002006-04-07T01:16:00.000-04:00Now that I've seen how he made the other fountains...Now that I've seen how he made the other fountains, I'm even more dissapointed with what we had.
