The Museum of Pop Culture is an architectural delight. Stainless steel panels of different colors and patinas are bolted together to make elaborate and futuristic shapes. My great friend Tony Birchler spent 4 months at the offices of Frank Geary helping make this building a reality. The interior had a variety of displays. A costume display of the works of Ruth Carter. She had costumes from Do the Right Thing, Roots, Malcom X, Black Panther and more. What a huge body of work. A floor to third story roof vortex of guitars. Some of the guitars were self playing, that is until a few years ago. Now they need a serious tune up. There were also areas devoted to Jimi Hendrix, Pearl Jam, Nirvana and Sci Fi. it was lots of fun poking around in there.
A fine pointer to send us on our way
Folded and draped shapes
Fun with light
Reflections nearly a block away
Three different colors and the monorail passes right through it
Different colors everywhere you look
Mookie from do the right thing
Them is some fancy shoes
Don't forget the E
From Malcom X
The costume she designed for herself on her Oscar night
Speaking of Knights Monty Python
The self playing guitars
I'll be made of metal
Pearl Jam in bronze
Devil pinata
It has been 45 days since we began our Migration.
