I was at Brown University the other day and they had this great exhibition of Joseph Cornell, Hannah Wilke, and Lee Bontecou among others. I always enjoy seeing Bontecou's work, whether it be her drawing or sculpture. They're so powerful, raw and scary. The experience I have in front of something like this sculpture is that I'm vulnerable. It's something you want to get close to, and simultaneously you don't want to get too close. Lasting work.
