This-or-That Tuesday: The Arts Edition



1. Poetry or prose?Prose.2. Funky modern art or the older, "classic" variety?Definitely the older, "classic" variety.3. Sculptures or paintings? Paintings, unless I'm the one doing the sculpting or painting, then I'd have to say sculpting.4. Theatre: exuberant musical or serious drama?I've never been to the theater but my best guess would be musical.5. Ballet or modern dance?I like both really but if I had to choose I'd have to say modern.6. Movies: major studio or indie?Both equally.7. Authors: Shakespeare or Dr. Seuss?Again, I enjoy both but I'll say Shakespeare.8. TV: PBS or A&E?A&E.9. Music: Beethoven or Beatles?The Beatles.10. Thought-provoking question of the week: You are a contributing member of your favorite art museum, and visit on a regular basis. They announce a new, temporary special exhibit by an artist surrounded by controversy...this person's work and/or political views offend you. Do you stop supporting the museum, or just stay away during the time the exhibit is there? I know quite a few people whose views offend me and I deal. If it's the work that offends me than I don't have to view it. So, I guess the answer to the question is no, I would not stop supporting my favorite museum simply because they chose to exhibit the work of someone who's views or work offended me.
