This one is pretty wonky, but I think that’s why I like it. The holes in travertine are always in the most inconvenient places…

“All art shown at the Venice Biennale of modern art must be transported to the site by waterways, including the bulkiest pieces. That’s not without risk as American artist Mike Bouchet learned: Having rafted the floating full-size family house he designed for the Biennale to its destination, he had to helplessly watch it sink slowly into the Venetian waves.” (submitted by PVZ)

Conservation nightmare!

Not sure if this got better or worse today, but it certainly got more colorful, that’s for sure.

In the last six months or so, I helped the Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources pick out a display case for their Blue Hen taxidermy specimen and it’s finally installed.  This is me, the WUDPAC fellow who did the conservation treatment, the former department chair, and the current department chair.
I guess this is my legacy at UD….
Go Blue Hens!
