Retrospective in Minimalism

It was an experience to be first in line at the Museum of Modern Art [MoMA] Saturday before last to see exhibitions and having the museum to ourselves. Many in line were members who had not been in a gallery for months and couldn’t wait to see art.

The Judd Retrospective explored the remarkable vision of the artist who expressed a commitment to basic forms free of metaphorical or expressive intent …. Minimalism at its finest!!!

Untitled 1963, Red paint on aluminum and Untitled 1966, Turquoise paint on aluminum

Untitled 1965, Galvanized iron

This is the artist first “stack” format consisting of boxes hung vertically along the wall.

NYC Reopens

Next week, I will be heading to NYC for a brief getaway. Like many of our states, they rely on a bit of tourism to power their economy and I’m happy to report that Governor Cuomo has stated museums and cultural centers may reopen in the coming weeks. All of us at Stylish Heath listen to the news, read articles, post and newspapers every day in order to stay well informed on how to maneuver during this pandemic.

When messages began pouring in from museums that were reopening, I couldn’t contain my enthusiasm …… can you say ecstatic!!! The first notice was from The Met, and then MOMA, each offering timed-entry tickets so, we nabbed a few for the weekend of the 28th. The Whitney Museum of Art will reopen September 3rd so, stay turned.

It feels wonderful to sneak a few minutes during a busy workday to compile an itinerary and shopping list so, as not to miss single item.
