Matisse vs. Picasso vs. Spring

Spring. I love it.
The MOMA, Queens invited all NYC museum staff for a private afternoon view of the Matisse Picasso show today. So, like many of my fellow good hard working museum stiffs on this fine spring day, I played hooky and went.
Now, if you think going to a museum blockbuster with your average art viewing crowd is odd, just think about how the vibe was with a mass of people who mount shows for a living. Yes, I spent some of my time in a roomful of the classics of modern art looking at how they jacked the stud walls into the ceilings. I saw a couple from another museum debate a framing choice on a small Picasso for at least 10 min. Museum geeks. I love them.
Oh, IMO, Picasso. Hands down.
And now, for the 3 people who read this site…the mtaaRR blog beats the world press and reports that the Gugg. officially signed with the Brazilian government this morning to build a museum. You read it here first. permanent link to this post

MTAA DOES suck.
They’ve been telling us that for years and years but we wouldn’t listen. Now I understand that they were right all along.
If two guys can’t keep this little web log going we must SUCK!
But then again, I could just post all the little meanderings of my online time. Here’s things that made me angry at the Bush Admin today:
Robert Scheer in Salon
Maureen Dowd in the NYTimes
And of course, Joe Conason always gets me riled up.
What is wrong with America? We can’t understand that no matter how many Iraqis (or anyone else for that matter) go free, it’s not permissable to build our foreign policy on lies?
Let the hair-pulling commence. permanent link to this post
