Some time ago - I went to the Auckland City Art Gallery to viewthe Yinka Shonibare show. I had Gina in tow and asked at reception
if I could bring her in with me - should I have left her in the car?
The answer was an obvious no.
Upon entering the room with the lady walking her pet jaguars
the concept of a society of elegant leisure which
includes elegant pets on a leash is evidently an historical one.
Admittedly Gina is a Huntaway and not a leopard and her collar
is in neoprene and nylon and not encrusted with diamonds.
