Nuit Blanche
Oct. 7th, 2008 02:22 pmUntil the invitation from
bobalone, I hadn't considered it. Stay up for "a free all-night contemporary art thing" in downtown Toronto? He suggested several of us gather to take advantage of the photo op.
So Saturday evening he and
paulintoronto invited me and
brunorepublic to convene at their house and plot our course. It would be impossible for one person to take in everything there was to offer, even if he managed to stay out all night. I had spent the afternoon perusing online descriptions of exhibits and installations, picking a few that seemed most interesting.

It would take me a couple hours to wind down from what I had seen. I started to compose a post that night, but according to my draft I only succeeded in writing one sentence. It was overwhelming. Even now my impressions are somewhat indescribable, but I hope to do it again next year.
