Seattle


The King of Pop at EMP

EMP had a exhibitions on Hatch Show Print and Jim Henson, but they were in no way as engaging or impactful as the constant large video projections of Michael Jackson in the Sky Church, his glove and jacket on display, and the plethera of messages scrawled all over the walkway of the museum.

So sad.
