I don't think you can be "off topic" in your own topic, especially in "Special Banter " . . .
The exhibit looks awesome. So much more engaging than viewing paintings on a wall from behind a velvet rope. Also, so many exhibits prohibit taking pictures now.
My all-time favorite Van Gogh quote. (Substitute "ride/work on your motorcycle", "play music", or what-have-you for "paint") . . .
"If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,'
then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced."
- Vincent Van Gogh
