David Adamo - Erasers


At the excellent Denver Art Museum, a fine selection of modern art is presented along with the regular European classics.  There is some Western American art too, but I find the Leanin' Tree corporate art gallery in nearby Boulder to be a much better collection of that genre.

This is David Adamo's Untitled (2012), seemingly a row of well-loved rubber erasers.  They're actually perfectly painted ceramic models of erasers, an absurd finding given how simple it would be to make the genuine article.
