CULTURE / DO NOT SIT IN THE ART
POP CAT AND FORMER MAYOR ATTEND MUSEUM GALA; SECURITY REMINDS THEM THE VELVET ROPE APPLIES TO CATS.
The former mayor mistook public funding for a reserved seat.
Pop cat Paloma arrived at the district museum gala with former mayor Clive, who immediately described the collection as ‘ours.’ Staff assumed he meant culturally. Then he climbed into it.
Security explained that the velvet rope applied to everyone. Clive requested the director, a quieter guard and clarification of what his donashun had actually purchased. Paloma admired a painting from several feet away and began referring to him as ‘a guest.’
The installation is called Entitlement. The artist has asked him to stay. Unpaid, obviously.
