‘All hope abandon, ye who enter here …’
This is the entry to Alfredo Jaar's The Divine Comedy looking at Dante's great work. It is described as, "Mona’s answer to the afterlife: a journey through hell, purgatory and paradise (via Dante, of course)."
Given the constraints of time on this short visit, I was not able to experience what was behind that door at the top of the stairs. So I am unable to verify whether or not people ever return from visiting here. But the entrance does look suspiciously like a Mark Rothko painting.
After fighting low shadows, bad light, and MOW sabotage, we a little uptight after chasing RISI northbound. Luckily, we found that an extra SARE was running back towards Salamanca. We dashed up to Mt Jewett to get the train by the only active B&O bracket left on the BPRR. Unfortunately, within the coming weeks these signals will be placed out of service in favor of a radio controlled switch.
Honestly, I think the only reason he came in this costume was to try to get into the Slave Leia group shot at 2PM.

Challenge: The Divine Comedy
This challenge inspired me to create a triptych of ATCs to portray the three parts:
Inferno: "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here"
Purgatorio: "And I'll sing, now, about that second realm where human spiritspurge themselves from stain, becoming worthy to ascend to Heaven."
Paradiso: "The love that moves the sun and stars."
Miniature faces of Thalia and Melpomene (approx. 1cm high) cast their shadows - or do they?

A pair of ancient Greek theatre masks reflect the ups & downs (joys & sorrows) of our human lives . Also called the Sock & Buskin as an actor in a tragic role wore a type of boot (buskin) to elevate him above the other actors who only wore socks on their feet. Grapes on the comedy mask suggest the joyful influence of wine & the horns for devilish fun !!
Be a bit of a devil & look at my masks album .
Joseph Frank "Buster" Keaton (October 4, 1895 – February 1, 1966) was an American comic actor, filmmaker, producer and writer. He was best known for his silent films, in which his trademark was physical comedy with a consistently stoic, deadpan expression, earning him the nickname "The Great Stone Face".
A wonderful night at the Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip. Always gonna love these neon caricatures and, yes, I do recognize all of them!
