    Everyone is welcome and the art never disappoints. Every month the art changes. Every Month! How…read moreexciting is that?!? And it's never the same as previous shows. The bar is always raised. Even if it's "not my thing" Its still a great time. The staff is kind and knowledgeable and happy to share and answer questions. Last week I participated in a Foil Sculpting Workshop with artist Douglas Shaw Elder. It rocked! Who knew you could sculpt with aluminum foil? The participants were kids through artists and me! We all left with foil sculptures and another reason to love this gallery.

    If I ever have $60,000 to blow (a pipe dream at the moment; having excessive amounts of money to…read morespend frivolously) and for whatever reason, I still happen to be living in OKC when I have this imaginary boatload of money, I will come to JRB and buy a naked woman statue. Because nothing says artsy like naked women statues. Done tastefully of course... I'm sort of joking about all of that, except the price tag. There really is a sculpture in there for $60,000. Actually, I'm not even sure if you can buy that. The musicians (i.e. the pianist and flautist) at JRB are for the lack of a better word, amazing. I think I spent more time listening to them than looking at the exhibition pieces. Most people probably came for the free champagne and hor d'oeuvres while pretending they cared about art that costs more than their cars (more than my car, anyway); there were a lot of college-age people who probably have even less money to spend than I do. I'm totally judging a book by its cover. The level of ostentation can be stifling, even off-putting if you're not used to being around overly pretentious people who think themselves to be culturally enlightened. As an Indian I've dealt with a fair share of my own people who think they're a bigger deal than they are, but even I reached my limit at the 40 minute mark. If I rolled my eyes anymore than I already was at some of the nonsense spewing from the mouths of the wannabe art critics present, it would have looked like I was having a seizure. Art is an odd thing to me; I don't get most of it, and in my humble opinion, a good deal of "contemporary" art is self-indulgent garbage. What I do like, I couldn't begin to describe to you on why I like it. Don't talk to me about feelings. I had someone ask me yesternight, "Why do you like that Van dyke brown print specifically?" Shut up, that's why I like it. But he wasn't willing to let it go, and he coaxed the answer out of me. Something about an urban element contrasting the traditional setting, and the emotions felt by the... something, something. It was $550. I would actually pay that. I'm not rolling in money yet, so I'm not in impulse buy mode, but I know where to go when I want to decorate my house. I doubt my favorite piece will still be there because a lot of people seemed to gravitate toward that one. C'est la vie. I need to finish this review before I start throwing anymore French around.
