Artist puts moms in a museum _ real moms

This September 2014 photo provided by Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art shows artist Andy Ducett with his mom Marilyn behind him and two volunteers at the Mom Booth at the museum in Bentonville, Ark. The Mom Booth is the opening exhibit in a new show of contemporary art at Crystal Bridges called "State of the Art." Ducett sees the piece as a way to challenge visitors' ideas about what art is by taking something familiar _ the concept of mom _ out of context and putting it in a museum setting. The booth is staffed by a rotating group of local volunteers. (AP Photo/Marc Henning) BENTONVILLE, Ark. (AP) — The first thing you encounter at a new contemporary art show at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art is the "Mom Booth," where a woman in an apron sits at a table.
