Everyday, I seem to be suffering from some new ailment. Lately it's my throbbing knees so wandering around Tokyo last weekend took its toll on my weary bones. Regardless, I don't think I'll end up here anytime soon. This sculpture by
Gilles Barbier,
L'Hospice (
The Nursing Home) represents what some of our Superheroes might look like had they aged naturally from the time they were introduced. The creepiest has to be
Catwoman decked out in leather. Ewww!

The
Mori Art Museum has a display on
Medicine and Art, "Imagining a Future for Life and Love--Leonardo da Vinci, Okyo, Damien Hirst."

A couple of the pieces I enjoyed (and bought postcards of) were
The Three Fates by
やなぎみわ (
Yanagi Miwa)

and
Scattered Deformities in the End by
松井冬子 (
Matsui Fuyoko). Manohman, these women are dark!

I also picked up 2 clear file folders, one of Da Vinci (Two Studies of Cranium) and one of
Takashi Murakami/Kaikai Kiki (
Iikoto-chan and
Warui Koto-chan). I'll leave it up to you to figure out which is which.
