Houston art writer Robert Boyd has been an avid Pokemon Go player, posting his finds to his social media accounts since the game launched this summer. He visited the Texas Contemporary Art Fair on Saturday, and found that even an art fair has its Pokemon finds.
Honestly, we have no idea what any of this means.

Is this what it takes to get the public interested in art? We are so screwed. . .
This art fair needed all the help it could get, frankly
