One of my favorite pieces is back at @artinstitutechi...this piece kills me every time I see it...but also makes me smile... Felix Gonzalez-Torres "Untitled" (Portrait of Ross in L.A.) 1991 Candies, in variously colored wrappers, endless supply Ideal weight: 175 lbs. ""Untitled" (Portrait of Ross in L.A.) consists of an ideal weight of 175 pounds of shiny, commercially distributed candy. The work's physical form and scale change with each display, affected by its placement in the gallery as well as audience interactions. Regardless of its physical shape, the label lists its ideal weight, likely corresponding to the average body weight of an adult male, or perhaps the ideal weight of the subject referred to in the title, Ross Laycock, the artist's partner who died of complications from AIDS in 1991, as did Gonzalez-Torres in 1996. As visitors take candy, the configuration changes, linking the participatory action with loss even though the work holds the potential for endless replenishment." #art #aidsawareness #wearentdoneyet #remembering #abstractart (at The Art Institute of Chicago) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpBHyYapXur/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We will hold our first annual Mid-Atlantic Masters Throwdown! All to often in fitness competitions the Masters category is an afterthought or not acknowledged at all.
