A happy coincidence: I was at the Miami Art Museum two weeks ago – just a few days after I wrote about the Saraceno installation image that was haunting me – and I stumbled on (and nearly into) Tomás Saraceno’s fantastic “Galaxies Forming along Filaments, Like Droplets along the Strands of a Spiders Web” (2008, elastic rope). How terrific: visitors who are “feeling flexible today,” as a guard put it, are encouraged to remove their shoes and attempt to make their way carefully between the strands if they like.
“Like Catherine Zeta-Jones in that movie with Sean Connery?” I asked. “Um, sure,” said the guard.
