Stepping up

While we’re on our Artspace jag, we saw something you don’t often see in our public art museums: the director up a ladder. It happened around half-way through Artspace’s 21st birthday celebrations on Saturday night. It was crowded, it was hot and it was Artspace director Brian Butler himself who climbed up to open the high windows onto the main gallery space and let in some fresh air. When you think about it, that’s what he’s been doing since he arrived.
