A History of Art major hoping to become an aspiring curator/critic/scholar (basically everything) who would, ideally, do more than attending those pretentious openings (a glass of wine would be perfect though) produce intelligible discourse on issues surrounding contemporary art and aesthetics. Has a huge resentment against Andy Warhol and Marina Abramovic for a wide variety of reasons.
