C'Est La Vie

I agree that it is ironique to unveil an establishment eighteenth-century period room at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts on Bastille Day; a day on which the establishment was overthrown [Broken Clock, July]. But that was 216 years ago. Sure, the MIA can use that day to celebrate all things French, but most of the details in your notice were cheap shots by a disgruntled anti-establishment mind. Beauty should be praised wherever it appears. Your notice was stupide.
