Downtown on Saturday, I come across some folks with a car up on the sidewalk, stacking pieces of wood behind it so as to make a ramp off the curb down which it may drive without unduly sudden changes in altitude. Closer inspection reveals that the car has been painted in the style of a Japanese woodcut and its rear windows decorated with bamboo screens.
It turns out that the car is to be part of an art exhibit opening the first weekend in January at the Bryan Ohno Gallery. They had to drive the car into the gallery to see whether it would fit. I'll say just this much: it's a good thing the car was a compact model.
