After the "Books as Art" exhibition a few weeks ago at Vassar, I was interested in this group. Books and newspaper had been dipped in wax, and then shaped and carved. You could still read the printing. I liked these better than the things at Vassar. They looked and felt ancient.
Hercules found a screwdriver over a doorframe in the gardens, and then found an empty platform. He created his own exhibit. Something about the loneliness of the skilled craftsman, or something.
"Rats", the restaurant on the Grounds, was in "Toad Hall", a cluster of buildings containing also a gift shop, a museum, offices, and storage. This is outside Toad Hall.
That's Rats in the background. The round pavilion is the dance floor.
This small sculpture was in the men's room in Rats. Title: "Resting on His Laurels".
