I attended my friend's evening of interaction art. I stayed for a long time and was extremely lucky to get to experience the fire tornado. Check out the video:

This was an incredible show with many great pieces. There were some amazing drawings by Charles "Pancho" Cruz in the back of the space.

I also saw some new pieces I really love. I especially enjoyed this piece, however I wish that the top half was printed in darker ink like the bottom. This bottom piece has highly inspired me and may result in a future painting I want to complete.  Marisol - Diptych, 1971; Lithograph in 2 colors on Arches; paper 47 3/4 in. x 31 5/8 in.   I love Teraoka's early work and this one is especially beautiful. AIDS has claimed two lives, a mother and child.  George Wesley Bellows - Seated Nude, 1910–1911  I'm extremely fond of paintings by George Wesley Bellows. This one is particularly fantastic with its juicy brushstrokes.   Frank Duveneck - Study for "Guard of the Harem", 1879; Oil on canvas  Frank Duveneck - Venetian Girl, 1880; oil on wood panel My favorite part of the museum is the African art section.
