paint made flesh

So I want to recommend to anyone reading that they should go check out Paint Made Flesh, the current exhibition at the Frist museum. The curator of the exhibit, Mark Scala, came to my art history class last semester and spoke about the show and it has gotten nothing but good reviews.
"Paint Made Flesh presents paintings created in Europe and the United States since the 1950s in which a wide range of painterly effects suggest the carnal properties and cultural significance of human flesh and skin. As a revisionist study of post-World War II art, the exhibition offers a rejoinder to the modernist orthodoxies of the mid-to-late 20th century by contending that paint’s material properties make it well suited to convey metaphors of human vulnerability. The exhibition includes works by Pablo Picasso, Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Willem de Kooning, Alice Neel, Leon Golub, Philip Guston, Eric Fischl, Georg Baselitz, Jenny Saville, Wangechi Mutu, John Currin, Cecily Brown, Daniel Richter, and others.

If you're a student you can get in free on Thursdays and Fridays (I wasn't aware until recently that we were free on Fridays too!). Just bring your id.
