Let me review the busy week before I list the coming attractions. And what a busy week this was.What are the life lessons learned since Monday?
A list:
• The New Museum likes to mix and match chairs and make visitors comfortable.
• The New Museum likes artwork by young people who find things.
• Museum membership includes not standing in line.
• The New Museum is New but not with respect to its sketching policy. Its sketching policy is eerily like MoMA's.
• Walkers and flâneurs require different gifts.
• Washington Square Park will survive, but I'm glad I took the pictures of the park in pristine snow the week before.
• Michele Asselin's photos of Mike Huckabee for the New York Times make him look hot.
• Robert Henri is a rock star.
• The We Are Ellis Island commercials make me cry.
• I want to recreate Art Ford's TV party in my own place.
• In an uncharacteristic act of website organization, I gathered all the printable maps in one place.
• Cookie cutters are for the cookie-cutter dependent.
Those are some powerful lessons. And come Monday, and for the many days after, look for the following posts:
• Shopping without Euros in SoHo, and A Ho-Ho NoHo Holiday on Ice
• Washington Irving's Solitary Walk Through Christmas
• Ashcan Artists Walk to McSorley's
• A Walking Tour de Bears in Central Park
• The New York Christmas Tamale Search
and many more lessons and carols.
