Art School: Fresh to Death

If you are in Seattle at all this summer, we highly recommend you check out Dario Robleto's Alloy of Love exhibit at the Frye Art Museum. Robleto gathers inspiration from DJ culture, using records and other everyday objects to create morbid oddities such as this mourning dress, which is made out of love letters from dead soldiers and dust from every bone in the human body. The Stranger calls Alloy of Love "a pop-culture-and-death-obsessed mindblower", and when else are you going to see a mixtape made of human bones? The show is free, and runs through September 1st.
