"A little bit of Upper-Manhattan right here in Provo"

This was a quote from the opening of BYU Museum of Art's new exhibition: "The Matter of Words". Cody and I went by and checked it out real quick. It's contemporary but don't let that scare you away-it's pretty cool. The coolest part was the center piece of the exhibition-an 80,000 lb tower of books. If only it had been ready in time for me to prepare my final tour exam in, but oh well-3 Mormon Towns will be good too.

And a close up of the books and magazines that made up the tower:






Check it out-it really does feel like some sort of urban contemporary exhibit-pretty cool and a fun date night :)
