just popped by david leventi's show at the bau-xi photo gallery; each photo meticulously depicts various opera houses from (mostly) the vantage point of the lead opera singer. overall it was beautifully done (and with opera playing in the background) - the only thing missing was vienna's staatsoper (the volksoper isn't quite as visually rich) which i thought odd as in the artist's statement vienna's house is brought up as a reference. something i learned: paris's house has a ceiling painted by chagall! what a refreshing change from rococo angels and whatnot!
