Art, My Photography

Before I left New York I spent a perfect day exploring by bike all the amazing art living among the rolling hills and trees at the Storm King Art Center outside the city. This is what I saw.

I am looking forward to finally going out to the Storm King Art Center, or as I like to think of it..New York’s Sculpture Art Amusement Park. The Center has an amazing 500 acres of art and nature. To prepare for my trip I took a look at some of their past installations and exhibitions.. CollectionMark di Suervo sculptures in the south fields of Storm King.

Art, Websites

I have spent the entire day de-installing the museum’s Maya Lin, a process that lasted a fair amount of time in which I spent channeling the gentle genius that is Maya Lin. Naturally that  eventually led me to spend probably entirely too much time on her website. Here’s two of my favorites.

Maya Lin, Water Line, Aluminum tubing and paint 2009
