Yesterday after school I went to volunteer at this private opening ceremony of Rebecca Belmore's collection of works at the Pari Nadimi Gallery. I personally don't think her art is grand (they make great images, but that's about it).
I thought it was a volunteer and won't get anything out of it. So for the whole night I've been sneaking wine I was offered into water bottles. Turns out at the end of the night Mr. Nadimi offered all the volunteers a bottle of wine of their choice as compliments anyway. So I walked home after 2 hours of work with 1 1/2 bottles of wine.
I was the door person for 2 hours, taking names and letting enthusiasts who are not on RSVP into the gallery anyway, eating high-end cater food & drinking decent white wine, talking to these people who are "in the circle" & pretending to be one of them, so it wasn't bad.
