Destination Favorites

Today my inner child was poised and ready to take flight due to inclement weather. I timed my escape from work to stay home in order to draft a few post. Photographers from Stylish Heath have been sending images of their destinations, and I have not had a moment to cipher through the media. So, this morning I settled in with a pot of coffee, a small basket of scones and a bit of time on my side to create a few posts.{Check out this stylish sunset taken by Terlene at Ala Moana Park in Oahu, Hawaii with cloud formations in the sky. This is the time of day when you can sit to watch the view until it is completely dark}{Sculptures by David French at the Hyatt Regency in Savannah on Bay Street from front to back -Anima – Corpus- Spiritus, 2017}


{The stylish Napoleonic rooms photographed by Tony at the Chateau Fontainebleau are absolutely indulgent…. I mean who would like to come home each night to relax in these over decorated rooms or spend the evening on the Roue de Paris, the ferris wheel that has been installed on the Place de la Concorde in Paris}

 

It has been a while since having the opportunity to read text and view photographs from everyone’s journeys and these are pictures that truly stand out…so enjoy!

Galleria dell’Accademia di Firenze

Can you imagine a gallery that houses the most famous sculptures by renowned Renaissance artist Michelangelo? Stylish Heath reporter and photographer Terlene {T3}  has left Capri for Florence, and upon her arrival went to the Galleria dell’Accademia di Firenze. The Galleria originated as a museum dedicated to the works of Michelangelo to provide shelter for conservation reasons of his sculpture of David from it’s outdoor location on the Piazzo della Signoria. Ms. T has also included photographs of sculptures from the Hall of Prisoners.

Yayoi Kusama’s: Infinity Mirrors

If you take a rainy Friday, put in for half days leave from work, travel to the Hirshhorn to see the final showing of Yayoi Kusama’s “Infinity Mirrors”, you have the start to a relaxing weekend.

Upon entering the museum the first item on the grounds is an amusing and whimsical sculpture of a giant gourd called “Pumpkin,” 2016- courtesy of Ota Fine Arts in Singapore. Kusama indicated pumpkins bring about poetic peace of mind, and have inspired her since childhood, when she was surrounded by her family’s nursery in Japan.

Yayoi Kusama is a phenomonical woman who moved in avant-garde circles with such artists as Andy Warhol and Allan Kaprow, while continuing to hone her skills on mirrored installations, and dots and motifs. She also became the first woman to represent Japan at the Venice Biennale.

This exhibition will embark on a tour of five major museums in North America and Canada, and is now headed to the Seattle Art Museum from June 30-September 10, 2017.
