Golden Showers

In the mood for some non-threatening conceptual art that's fun and isn't too taxing? "Fountains" is a group exhibit at D'Amelio Terras gallery that uses Marcel Duchamp's infamous urinal art piece as a reference point. I especially liked Noah Sheldon's "Perpetual Bells and Chimes" in which a broomstick spins as an axle to twirl two chime displays, and Gibb Slife's "Reception," which is an old TV set with an expansive web of wires and pie tins to help pick up a snowy PBS station. (Unfortunately, images of these works were unavailable from the gallery.)
