#1 The Rembrants were here in Ningbo for a few weeks. Yippee. You know, it's actually nice going to art museums in China - they're not infected with the "defecate on a canvas" style of art. Also, you won't see any exhibitions that consist of the artist's leftwing opinions displayed as art.

#2 Those renovations are taking an awf'ly long time. The museum was getting ready to close the last time I was in A'dam...the summer of 2001.

The gallery that held The Night Watch and dozens of Dutch Old Masters was spectacular. Or rather, the paintings were spectacular, the gallery merely serviceable.

#4 Expect a flood of meticulously forged Rembrant knockoffs on the stolen art market in the next few weeks.

#6 Besoeker, there is a kind of haunting familarity in your work of art.
