A nearby SAIC office happened to have closed down recently (not a good sign, actually), and as such, the excess office supplies/furniture/decor were ransacked and distributed amongst other surrounding SAIC offices like plunder from a pirate's buried treasure (sorry, I just watched the trailer for the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean movie). Some got the chairs, others got the staplers. What we got was the office art.Upon careful observation, my coworkers and I have determined that any prints that are framed and hung in offices fall into two categories:
1) abstract art that consist of neutral or pastel colors and simple shapes that in no way can actually be interpreted as anything
2) landscapes
I suppose the purpose of these works of "art" are to add some much needed color (using the term very loosely here) to an otherwise rather drab and depressing environment of blue cubicle walls and cheap wholesale commercial carpet, while avoiding the risk of possibly offending or stimulating anyone in any way whatsoever.
God bless corporate America!
