The Early Star Attraction of ArtPrize 2014 in Grand Rapids

I'm a fan of modern art - seriously. And, if you get a chance to visit ArtPrize - the city wide art show in Grand Rapids - going on now through Oct 12th, (yes, I WILL be going) be sure to check out what they're saying is one of the hottest pieces of art on display this year. The piece is called "Self-Portrait as Bunnies (The Bathers)" by artist Alex Podesta. And it's on display IN the Grand River.

What does it mean?. You tell me. Here's the link to his page. Watch the video - Alex explains the piece. I still don't get it - but I like it.

But, that's modern art.

Here's a guide to ArtPrize 2014 to get you started, from our friends at mlive.com.
