Marketing through internet memes, smart choice McNay Art Museum
Dear Photograph,Could she have known as she stood there, smiling in her doorway, one day she would create such a wonderful legacy? At her death in 1950, Mrs. McNay left her collection of more than 700 works of art, her home, and an endowment to establish the first museum of modern art in Texas. Today, we celebrate her generous spirit and wish our beloved founder,Marion Koogler McNay, a happy 129th birthday!
Love,The McNay
A SOLUTION: Years ago I attended a vogue-ing competition in Harlem. This was way back before Madonna popularized this mysterious subculture. As those of you who have seen the ’80s documentary Paris is Burning will be aware, these hilariously competitive events were structured around very specific categories: Executive Realness, First Time in Drag, Looking Like a Banshee Girl, etc.
On this particular night one of the categories made a strong impression on me. I realize now that it contains the ultimate solution to the conundrum of office attire circa 2012. The category was … drumroll … Looking Like You’re Going Someplace Better Later. As I struggle to concoct a new roadmap for office attire, balancing the need for a little self-expression with the need for decorum, this phrase floats back into my consciousness. Avoid the gruesome pitfalls of overdressing or underdressing. Simply dress like you are going someplace better later.

Another day with limited photographs. It was too rainy.
I spoke today with a friend, another artist, about why I’m interested in the daily. What I’m hoping to get out of this investigation of the daily. And I began to think about rituals. The things we do over time, repetitively, whether we…
