What belongs in a museum

I’m certainly not here to get into whether certain pieces of art should be returned to the original location from where they were stolen (they should). That is for another post, another time.

With a Smile Mimmo Rotella, 1962. Tate.

Unknowingly, this was the last image I snapped at the Tate Modern.

Untitled. Multiple Artists. In a subway somewhere near the Bankside Galleries, 2021

This was the first image I took right outside on the way to our train home. Without one, there wouldn’t be the other. Without the random chance of many, there wouldn’t be a singular artist.
