"Don’t tell me I am a dog
When you see me eat a poppy
I sniff gasoline in band-aids
Pour chocolate with garlic
On my bread"

— Etel Adnan, “Five Senses for One Death,” 1971

Snøhetta take note: The last in grupa o.k.’s series for SFMOMA, Proposal for a Museum, is now up. It’s in the form of a video tour of the new institution by the Chicago-based artist Dana Degiulio. If you don’t laugh and cry by the end of it you’re made of sturdier stuff than we are.

The N.O. Show (National Offense), October -November 1982, organized by Jo Babcock and Paul Hasegawa at A.R.E., Inc., La Mamelle, Inc., South of Market Cultural Center, San Francisco; Fashion Moda, Ninth Street Studio, New York; James Turcotte Gallery, Los Angeles. Posted as part of Tanya Zimbardo’s post on A.R.E., Inc., for SFMOMA’s Open Space blog. Tanya’s series of posts on exhibition mailers from the museum’s archives is great in general.
