In Venice, Italy a major contemporary art exhibition takes place every two years called the La Biennale di Venezia, and the 56th International Art Exhibition is open to the public until November 22, 2015, and the 14th International Architecture Exhibition entitled Fundamentals until November, 23, 2014.

IMG_3811Practically every Palazzo has an art exhibit or installation as part of the undertaking and our on the spot reporters {Sean and Tony} scored big with their first photographs. An Ai Weiwei piece of 700 bicycles called Stacked, 2014 that we saw in the Brooklyn Museum of Art in August of this year is now in Venice outside of the Istituto Veneto di Scienze Lettere ed Arti off the Grand Canal, these are exquisite shots.

Travel stylishly and enjoy!

Supermoon of August

IMG_3552 IMG_3551I wanted to share these striking photos taken upon landing at Dulles Airport after our trip from Savannah. The scene was most spectacular to view from the window of the plane, as this August full moon was this year’s closest super-moon, and according to NASA was 14% closer and 30% brighter than all the other full moons of the year.

The super “harvest moon” will light up the night skies with a final super-moon showing of 2014 on September 8th and 9th so, get outside and look up!
