Latin American Art

During my visit to Caracas for the FIA art fair (Feria Iberoamericana de Arte), I toured the Neutra House and couldn't help but fall for two pieces of Venezuelan contemporary art.

Neutra House

I was lucky to be shown the Neutra House in Carcacas, Venezuela. It is the only house designed by Austrian born architect Richard Neutra in Latin America. His most well known projects are in California (Kaufman House) where he lived from 1923.
This house was built in 1962 and along with Villa Planchart (designed by Italian architect Gio Ponti) it is one of the gems of Caracas's architecture.

I always forget about ABC

I saw this white linen sofa with navy serged edges on the 3rd floor of ABC. I like it. Too bad white is a nightmare in this city, though. ABC Home.

Washington Square Park

The first phase of the Washington Square Park re-design is complete. I can't decipher a huge difference, but I appreciate the plantings on my walk to the office in the mornings.

Rockwood Rehearsal Dinner!

Storm King

I've been meaning to visit the Calder sculptures at Storm King for the past couple of years. Maybe this weekend. Five Swords by Alexander Calder

Classic Albuquerque

If you've seen BREAKING BAD, you'll get a kick out of this photo. It's classic Albuquerque exterior decor. If you haven't seen the show, download it now!

We've been traveling

Taos, New Mexico

This isn't our job....

But I'm a big fan of the fireplace.

...meanwhile at the Hall of Justice

I have always been quite taken with this structure that sits in the middle of the Hudson River, between New Jersey and Manhattan Island. It is the Ventilation Tower of the Holland Tunnel but to me it looks, and should be, the Hall of Justice!

I've always loved Calder

I've always loved Calder's mobiles, but I recently saw a show at the Pompidou featuring his circus!

Alexander Calder: Les années parisiennes (The Parisian years), 1926-1933

A "transatlantic" artist, Alexander Calder (1898-1976) is well known here for the large mobiles and stabiles of painted metal to be seen in French cities and parks. As well as presenting outstanding pieces, the exhibition offers an opportunity to witness the original state of works conceived in terms of motion and equilibrium but now condemned to immobility by the exactions of time or by the death of their creator and animator, these being here accompanied by films such as Jean Painlevé's and photographs such as Brassaï's, in which they are shown being operated by Calder himself.

Little animals of bent metal, acute magazine illustrations, toys sparkling with colour and ingenuity: the young Calder's earliest works offer a key to his art, the art of an inspired DIYer, of a magician who took base materials and primitive mechanisms and transformed them into true sculpture. These assemblies of recycled materials and objects, held together by wire, provided the models for his first masterpiece, the Circus, produced in Paris between 1926 and 1931.

We just saw Karl Haendel's show (*) at Harris Lieberman Gallery (89 Vandam st). Mostly all of his works are pencil on paper and they are really quite amazing.
