2 to Check out at the CAM


The Cincinnati Art Museum has a few new exhibits that I've neglected to mention. Maps & Manifest: New Works by Mark Bradford is a show features canvasses that are address both physical and psychological space. He addresses urban sprawl and the local effects of globalization using advertisements and and billboard paper gathered from his neighborhood in L.A.

Also, for those of you car enthusiasts, the CAM has a Jaguar E-Type Roadster designed by Sir William Lyons on loan from the private collection of Stephen A. Locker. The designer avoided the typical "muscle car" look that was so popular in the 1980s and created a sleek, stylish car that helped established Jaguar's reputation as a manufacturer of well-designed cars. Even its top competitor, Enzo Ferrari, called it "the most beautiful car ever."
