i was super bored this weekend so to get my brain working a bit i decided to go to casino luxembourg. there's been an exhibition on for awhile now entitled 'ceci n'est pas un casino' (this is not a casino), because of course you'd think it was one by the name. the theme is basically fun and games, but with the element of frustration attached to gambling. frustrating or not, it was a really fun and funny set of works, the type of exhibition to go with a friend or two just to share in laughing or playing. i think i'll go again with one, especially to take some photos.
the first thing you see when you walk into the gallery is jacob dahlgren's massive wall of dartboards, complete with a little box on the floor filled with darts. looking at all of the bad shots on the boards, your first urge is to pick up a dart and try for the bull's-eye yourself. i think i got pretty close on my fourth try!
