Going to Katonah / Kay Rosen at The Aldrich Museum in Ridgefield

With friend Karen, we went on the Harlem Line northbound.
About more than an hour ride from Grand Central NY -
Bought lunch and ate it in this in this gazebo - (no pictures, found this on the internet)
A taxi brought us to the museum in Ridgefield - (no buses on Sunday)
3 Wallpaintings and 12 drawings: a delightful show!
Silent - solemn - tickley
Back in Katonah, outside of Katonah Art Museum: flags!
A flagdrop?

Steps leading to the PATH trains to New Jersey, like being inside a whale.

911 Memorial
All this in the financial district of New York.
Meanwhile, there's free poetry in Union Square subway station. People were waiting in line.

ISCP Field Trip / MassMoca/Williamstown (2)

Lunder Center at Stone Hill, 8 minutes walk from the main building of The Clark Art Instititute,
architect of this building is Tadao Ando.
.

The Clark, walk from Lunder Center. I saw Helen Frankenthaler's paintings there. No images of the show
-copyright issues, I assume. Great paintings and woodcuts!
(I deliberately skipped Picasso, Alma Tadema, and 17-Century Dutch Genre Painting.)

Walking to the main road of Williamstown.

Williams College Museum of Art


An inspired tour by Sonnet Coggins Associate Director for Academic and Public Engagement

What book is helping you understanding the world right now? I wish every library asks this question to their visitors.
On show, one of the rooms of 'Lex and Love', Meleko Mokgosi



Rural life, seemingly peaceful.

The trip back, 4 hours of getting your limbs shaken in the bus.
