Comments (6) I’ve been into reading for some time lately. I had forgotten the pleasure of diving into a world far, yet near – the universe of stories and destinies. Paris is my frame as I advance in the city heat, stopping on a bench or a cutesy café to savor a page or tens of them. Binge reading or just a hint of sweetness on the tip of my tongue, all delish’ the same.
My apple of eye hang-out in Paris is the Modern Art Museum. A the big juicy treat, indeed. Outside youngsters skateboard and make their mp3 players chant. I take the first bite and crack the complex by the Tokyo Palace restaurant. Nippon tang blows right at me.
As some of you know, this is what I was up to last weekend. London! The vibrant, spunky city! Our first stop was at the Saatchi Gallery, situated in the beautiful, rather well off looking Chelsea hood. The gallery is hosting an exhibition focused on Arabic and Middle East artists. Very interesting and thought provoking. The building is also a gemstone itself. Spacious and beautifully lit.
I’m having a tough week. Lots of work. When I get home, it’s a bit difficult to get the load off. I want to relax, but it is as if my system was still running full speed. At times like these I look for detachment in art and entertainment. Beautiful bright colors can do wonders on my mood. The below pictures were taken at my fave’ Paris hangout, the Museum of Modern Art.
I invited my blog friend Audrey, such a polished New Yorker she is, to go and visit the Chanel Mobile Art Exhibition. The show traveled to three cities, New York being the last, before the company decided to cancel the rest of the tour. Audrey’s visit will remain unique. One-of-a-kind she truly is, and went on her mission full-heatedly. Thank you Audrey, you’re such a sweet friend and a gifted writer. Here, come on embark on a guided tour à la Audrey.
Performance Art has for some time fascinated me. Jackson Pollock’s Action Painting being the greatest of my likes. Taking risks, producing the piece in front of the very eyes that follow your moves and also combining art with physicality and gesture please me enormously. For our last July wedding I decided to give my husband a gift that truly looked like me. A dance performance combined with drafting together, in less than a minute, an oil pastel drawing. Below is the finished product.
