Help Send Julianna To Japan! (updated)
Seriously.
Since I discovered on Wednesday that Theo Jansen’s work will be at Hibiya Park in Tokyo, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. By Friday, I had decided that I’m taking an art-pilgrimage in the spring, with Tokyo as the highlight.
Ideally, I would be going to MoMA to see Matthew Barney’s work, Utah to see the Spiral Jetty, Tokyo to see Theo Jansen’s work, stopping somewhere in Europe (London? Italy? Paris? Athens?), then back home to recover. But, realistically, funding that is an absolute nightmare.
So, I’ve decided I’m going to Tokyo for a few days in March or April. The cost isn’t as high as I feared, and although I could dip into my “savings” (aka line of credit), I would much prefer not to. I’m looking at a base $2,000 $2,500 $1,800 for travel and accommodations for a week (formerly only three days, but that’s clearly insufficient!), plus food and misc expenses.
