An Open Letter to The MoMa

And open letter to the Museum of Modern Art.

MoMa,

I miss you and have really appreciated the many exhibits I've seen at your space. I extremely enjoyed the Superhero Costumes and other fashion exhibits. Thank you for all the inspirations.
But before I end this somewhat short letter, I wish to tell you how much I want/need/have to see your Marina Abramovic: The Artist is Present exhibit. The idea of having an artist sit and stare at people for almost an entire day, from opening to closing, interests me in a very curious way. Although she does remind me of the woman from that one Sex and the City episode where Carrie first meets "The Russian"... Oh, wait...That is her.... I find the piece stimulating and I'm very entertained by the portraits you have been taking of people as they watch Abramovic, who often does a lot of performance art, in her current state. I have found the most interesting ones to be the small children who stare up at her in puzzlement and the inspired, young people crying their eyes out.

Sincerely,
Ariel
