table topic #11



here's another time travel topic this week:

11. Which era of history would you chose to live in other than the present?

i'd have to base my answer on art history. i would have to vote for the 1920s & 30s and i would love to have been a contemporary of peggy guggenheim, hanging out a bit in new york, a bit of paris, with some london thrown in here & there. have a few furnishings by calder & co. 

either that or the early 1600s - i definitely could have been a model for rubens.

as i'm a bit of a feminist, i'd choose the future...2030 maybe? probably also some great gadgetry...

technically the question is era of history, but we'll allow your future answer.

i hope we are facebook friends in 22 years' time so that we can compare gadgets. maybe i'll have a TV bigger than 13" by then. ;-)
