Maurizio Cattelan @ the Guggenheim

Before the Maurizio Cattelan exhibit gets taken down (which should be an event in and of itself) I encourage you to go.  Go with a friend, go with the kids, just go and have fun with the show.   There is nothing on the walls of the Guggenheim as you wind your way around, instead all the art is suspended from the oculus of the building (an amazing feat) giving you an interesting an unique vantage point in your ascent or descent.  The taxidermy specimens are quixotic and hilarious.  I couldn't help but be amused by the jocularity of the exhibit.  See what you think the artist was trying to do other than merely getting a RISE out of you.  I'd love to hear your reactions.
