then i took in the musuem. there was an interesting special exhibit on safe design - they had materials, clothing, cars, buildings, space savers that are being designed this very second for the future and for now. it was really interesting to see how we may all live in the future with new types of skin protection, kevlar protection, and even new designs of chairs so when you go to a restaurant, you can hook your bag or purse under the chair so no one will steal it - genius!
i also didn't realize that the MoMA has van Gogh's Starry Night and Dali's persistence of memory. they also have a ridiculous amount of picasso's. a great room of all piet mondrian. one really awesome series from water lillies, and some really great jackson pollock - including my favorite one: number 31 1950. and then of course the contemporary stuff, which some of it might give me nightmares.
so if you're in NYC anytime soon - or you live close by - get on the v train and get to the MoMA. it rocked!!!
oh- and happy halloween!
