When the Breakfast Club was released, WWII was a close to that day and 1985 is to us
In 2025,
we are as far away from 1900
as 1900 was away from 1775

Picture shows the Time Person of the Year mirror installation by Mungo Thomson at the Moco Museum Amsterdam. The mirror invites visitors to stand in front of the mirror to observe time passing. The following text is from the Moco website. 'Both fun and cruel, the conceptual artist stabs us with a double-edge sword with his person-sized works that are vanity but also vanitas – a memento mori that we are all going to die. Thomson made the simple observation that time happens in a mirror. As one immortalizes oneself in the reflective surface, one stares directly in the face of mortality as the TIME mirror series quietly observes the passing of time.'
