"Inscription 4026 B.C." by Enrico Donati

This is one of my favourite pieces from the MOMA last week.

- rich colours, thick textures, bold size, large shadows, glowing lights -

just like the city itself; fascinating, rich, inspiring.

hello Martin Kippenberger

I am currently wondering the streets of NYC.

One of my favourite things in life, really!

And while wondering through the floors of the MOMA, one of my other favourite things to do, especially when I know I am going to turn the corner and

run face to face with Mr. Mark Rothko!

I was introduced to the works of Martin Kippenberger.

A heavy retrospective, diverse and disturbing, enlightening and emotional.

The collection of work varied from room to room, really from piece to piece and it left me with the feeling that this man's personality was as such.

Amongst all of the caos were some beautiful pieces.

My favourite? an untitled painting 240 x 300 cm large,

from a series of work that was titled " dear painter, paint for me"

( it is pictured above with the man on the couch) nice place to sit in my opinion.

The light from this painting struck me from across the room.

Reminded me of the first time I saw an Edward Hopper in the flesh.

ahhhhh a day at the MOMA, life is sweet.

THE BEST OF MOMA

Here are my picks for the best pieces at the MOMA.

I love finding paintings by artists that i am familiar with, but that surprise me, that are not typical of their style.

The Rothko paintings are still by far my favourites though.

My breathe changes when i stand in front of them, shaking my head in awe.
