My favorite museum goer checks out Dutch artist Folkert de Jong's "The Shooting... At Watou", on exhibition at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art. Bold and interesting, but not a place that you would want to linger due to the violent depiction, the freakish figures, and the terrifying and wholesale use of such disquieting materials as polystyrene and polyurethane. It was the first time I wanted to wear a dust mask at a museum. Still, a memorable work.
