Really quick! This is a little after the fact, but it’s a local happening that I thought should be recognized on our blog nonetheless. If you hadn’t seen it in the news already, the “Cardiff Kook” was recently (artfully) re-vamped to celebrate Vincent Van Gogh’s birthday (3/30/1853). The Kook statue has been a common target for public art projects, but next to the shark attack project last summer, I think this is one of the best! Thanks to local, Carlsbad artist, Bryan Syder for sharing his art with the entire community! Can’t wait to see what else he has in store, and who targets the Kook next.
Become more Arty.
Meet our Bloggers
Beth Kwapis, Museum Coordinator Dream Title: Connoisseur of Human Folly Beth is: more voyeur than exhibitionist and is thus completely terrified to be sharing her thoughts via blog. That is no joke! I love mid-century Modern anything and I want to adopt 1-4 dachshunds with my husband (he remains ambivalent on the subject). Originally from the Detroit area, I am currently flirting with becoming a pescetarian because all one's protien needs can be met with the incredible sushi I'm discovering in San Diego. I basically snagged this job by coming into the Museum and begging the kind front desk staff to pass on my resume. I am not sure how I've managed to keep it. Carissa Baird, Museum Clerk Dream Title: Your Awesomeness Carissa is: an art lovin', fro wearin', burrito eatin', red wine drinkin', world travelin', movie watchin', girl with the small wrist tattoo. A political, sociological, feminist, (wannabe) artist, thinker, thrill-seeker, reader, and tiny dancer. A laid-back lady who left her heart in San Francisco--but came back with a college degree, and (future) pet whale in Antarctica--but he doesn't know I'm coming to claim him yet. I got this job because I have cool shoes, but I've kept it because I work with cool people. I'd rather be road trippin'. I eat boys and blogs for breakfast. Oh, and I love cliche's. GO CHARGERS!
