I’ve got a couple weeks’ worth of visual arts stories I’ve yet to link up here. For you, the good thing to come out of my laziness is a handy list of shows to make your own non-Hop day of viewing. I’d recommend taking a look at them all while you can.

About time for some links to my coverage of March shows in The Dispatch and Alive:
Here, have some art
Actually, it’s my latest coverage of Columbus art shows, which are still on view through at least the end of the month. And a picture of something cool I saw at one of these. And since I can’t offer any actual art here, later this week I’ll post a few suggestions on how the cash-strapped can start an original art collection on the relative cheap - 50 bucks or less.

Reviews: Jane Eyre & Insidious

How’s that for a double feature? Probably not so great, in part because one is an original work that’s pretty damn derivative and the other is a story that’s been done on film ad nauseum yet is still surprisingly fresh. Click here for my review of Insidious, here for Jane Eyre. Links via Alive.
