i could not pull myself away from this Magritte painting yesterday. with the crowds swarming around me, all i could think of was people standing before the Grand Canyon with their cameras glued to their eyes, or folks experiencing the Sistine Chapel through their cellphones, or parents witnessing the birth of their children on a video screen.
planted right next to me was a gentleman taking a picture of this painting in a painting with his i pad. i kid you not. (p.s. ~ there were "No Photography" signs
everywhere)
the times change, the technology changes, but the human condition remains the same.
