cavetocanvas: Untitled (Portrait of Ross in L.A.) - Felix Gonzalez-Torres, 1991 From the Art Institute of Chicago: Felix Gonzalez-Torres produced work of uncompromising beauty and simplicity, transforming the everyday into profound meditations on love and loss. “Untitled” (Portrait of Ross in L.A.) is an allegorical representation of the artist’s partner, Ross Laycock, who died of an AIDS-related illness in 1991. The installation is comprised of 175 pounds of candy, corresponding to Ross’s ideal body weight. Viewers are encouraged to take a piece of candy, and the diminishing amount parallels Ross’s weight loss and suffering prior to his death. Gonzalez-Torres stipulated that the pile should be continuously replenished, thus metaphorically granting perpetual life.

I got my mother a car license plate of my university that said “USC MOM” (couldn’t find a picture of it online). She immediately began crying upon opening the present; she’s been asking for one in years. Consider it a success. Plus, my older brother received his B.F.A. on Friday from USC as well: making it even further a successful Mother’s Day weekend.

My mom thinks she’s so cool for TyPiN lYk d1z on Facebook.
