Tilt Shift: The Beautiful Game

For my birthday, my One took me to LACMA. We both love art and took in an afternoon full of everything from Calder to Van Gogh. One exhibit was called "Futbol: The Beautiful Game" and featured this crazy piece by Brazilian artist Nelson Leirner entitled: Maracana, named for the stadium in Rio de Janeiro. This installation filled the first gallery with a soccer field hosting a team of plastic Hulk action figures versus a team of red Power Ranger action figures. In the stands surrounding them were figurines including a ring of Jesuses, Hello Kitties, Buddhas, toads and garden gnomes.
