i wonder what it is that draws an individual to art. nearly every time i'm at the metropolitan museum of art here, i stop by the permanent egyptian and greek exhibits. i must have seen them dozens of times now and yet they fill me with awe and wonder. whereas, assyrian art, with the huge exception of architecture, leaves me completely flat.
