This is the title of an article published in the Weekender section of the Free-Lance Star today. The exhibit is at The Phillips Collection in D.C. Among the attractions are Muybridge’s horse in motion and Rosa Bonheur’s 1855 painting “The Horse Fair.” This cannot be a mere coincidence since we just talked yesterday about many of these very things discussed in the article. Anyway, instead of trying to discuss what is in the article and showing just what I don’t know about film, I’ll just give you the facts.
