Bart Beaty In Angouleme 2009—01

Angouleme opens this morning looking to dodge its second bullet. Earlier this week a major storm did a lot of damage in Bordeaux, but left Angouleme largely untroubled. Today, France has a train strike that may curtail the arrival of visitors, but, hopefully, only for today. Weather forecasts are promising and the general mood is good.

The Dupuy-Berberian exhibition opened yesterday to the press and is a real stunner with almost 300 pieces, sculptures, artifacts and an enormous sculptural machine that has to be seen to be believed.

So far everything seems to be going great.
