We’re looking for a couple of all-star Tumblr users who would like to attend our media preview for Rineke Dijkstra: A Retrospective and Mark Bradford on Wednesday morning. We’ll feed you breakfast while you mingle with the press, then you’ll get to meet the artists in person and see the exhibitions before anyone else. All we ask is that afterwards, you make a post about the experience on your own Tumblr. Sound good? Send us a message if so!
