I thought the Wexner was very interesting and different. My favorite piece was the 18 minute loop video in the fake living room. It was ironic what the newscasters were saying because they were supposed to be speaking to us. Its funny that they wanted so much from the listeners yet the listeners watch them (news) to become informed about things happening in the world. I think it must have taken the artist quite some time to come up with all the correct news clips with the certain words to make this video.
The one area that sort of freaked me out was the last room upstairs. The pieces were made out of different materials but they resembled masks from Halloween to me. It was a little disturbing and reminded me of Michael Myers. Some of these art pieces looked like something anyone could buy at a Halloween store. They actually would have made really great Halloween costumes but not my favorite art pieces. I also thought the random heads in the gravel area was creepy as well.
