A Visit to the Broad

I reserved a visit at the Broad in East Lansing, Michigan, today. I had already seen the Interstates of the Mind exhibition, but had not seen Seeds of Resistance. Below, I’ve included one image from Seeds and several from Interstates.

It was cool to be at the Broad. There are several exhibitions in rotation right now; I enjoyed Interstates of the Mind the most.

The Broad is doing pre-arranged visits right—you can reserve a slot online—and I appreciate that.

The sculpture, which resembles a satellite, and reminds me of the menacing machines in The Matrix, is a seed bank, storing seeds for future generations.
