MOMA in 2005

So finally over my new year's hangover, I popped down to MOMA to see the new space. Room after room of unbelievable, iconic works - but after a couple of hours, even icons can't keep your feet from hurting. I wouldn't recommend trying to do it all in one go.

And while there was something for everyone, I was amused to stumble on a Dan Flavin piece in one of the top floor galleries. Amused since I had stumbled on a story (as usual, registration required!) about him in today's Times, discussing the transition of Flavin's work from being based on commodity off-the-shelf components (light bulbs!) to an endangered species, as the bulbs go out of production, requiring stockpiles or special remakes.

Just before Christmas, my sister had her second child, named Hope Gabrielle. I was on hand to help out...and record every moment I was there! Of course, every baby has a story and this one is no exception, but I can't post this kind of thing.
