- NCAR has two "art galleries", one near the library and one in the
- cafeteria. Last month, the library gallery had some really bad
- new-agey stuff with medicine wheels and feathers and wolves and
- bears and alien-looking creatures dancing in rings. This month,
- it is obviously a new year, with new people on the art-selection
- board, because the library gallery is full of these weird painted
- boxes with paint-splattered cut-outs in geometric shapes, illuminated
- by neon tubes inside the boxes and little incandescent bulbs behind
- the shapes, some of which are on all the time, and others which go
- on when a button on the case is pressed. I got the price list from
- the front desk. I've only got to figure out how many I'll get, and
- where I'll put them.
-
- The cafeteria gallery is still full of 4'x5' American Primitive style
- paintings of roosters by someone named "Skok."
