[Five questions to SFMOMA visitors, artists, staff, or guests.]

Adam and Rebekah

Name/Place of Residence/Occupation/Hobby?

My name is Rebekah. I am an optician and I live in Noe Valley with my husband Adam. My hobby is—a couple of things: I like playing with the dog, Oliver, and then I also make music with my husband, Adam.

My name is Adam and I live in San Francisco, in Noe Valley. My job title is complicated. Let’s go with corporate analyst for an online developer for multi-player games. My hobby is hanging out with Rebekah and hanging out with the dog and playing piano and making music with just one of those two.

R: Not the dog.

Do you collect anything?

R: Lots of vintage clothes. And virtual cards.

A: We kind of collect art.

R: Kind of, but not much. We collect dust.

A: Dirty clothes. Dirty dishes.

R: We collect plastic furniture. I enjoy plastic furniture. Plastic jewelry. I collect glasses, that’s very true. I think we collect a lot of airline miles. We like to travel a lot.

A: I collect all of those thing, so maybe move a couple of those over. I collect musical instruments, I suppose. I have 4 or 5 at home and microphones. Because of Rebekah I’ve been collecting clothes as well. This is my seventh suit and third three-piece suit.

R: We collect friends. Not the TV show.

RIP King of Pop Posted on June 25, 2009 by Suzanne

Jeff Koons, _Michael Jackson and Bubbles_, 1988.

Jeff Koons, Michael Jackson and Bubbles, 1988.

Jeff Koons’s porcelain sculpture, always of great curiosity to the crowds when it’s up in the galleries, and one of my favorites, of Michael Jackson and Bubbles. You already know the news about the King of Pop. About the sculpture, more here. We’ll miss you, Michael. No 1980s living room would have been the same without you.
