So my sister has sent me this challenge: Day 2 of 10 – 10 all time favorite movies. Post an image, no need to explain. I am supposed to nominate a person, but I have decided not to do this 🙂 The relationships and sensitivity the director showed to the theme was amazing. This is […]
So my sister has sent me this challenge: Day 1 of 10 – 10 all time favorite movies. Post an image, no need to explain. I am supposed to nominate a person, but I have decided not to do this 🙂 Probably one of the most intense, thrilling movies I have ever seen. To this […]
I am pleased that I had the opportunity to see this remarkable little film. Today, we take sex and relationships so casually that it is wonderful to see what a struggle it can be, especially when both parties come with some heavy baggage behind them, and it is 1962. It also does not help when […]
What a wonderful thing to find a Haring after all these years. It is even better that it was behind aluminum cladding, as it probably is in better shape than had it been left to the elements. Well done!! Keith Haring Uncovered in Amsterdam Remko De Waal/EPA, via Shutterstock
What a gift the two directors (MoMA’s and NVG’s) have given the people of Melbourne, and for that matter, Australia. I am sure it was a logistical nightmare with couriers, packing, transports and insurance, but in the end it is all worth it to be able to see 130 MoMA works in Melbourne. I have […]

This convent is in the far eastern section of Switzerland, Graubunden, near the Italian border. The Convent itself is on the UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983. I was not able to see the small chapel, as it is undergoing renovation – also the frescos behind the main alter are also hidden by walls. The […]
What an honor it was last night to be able to see Patti Smith live in Zürich for the first time in my life – she has always been somewhat of a hero of mine – mostly for her love of humanity. The show was truly amazing! I thought she would only be singing her […]
Rather interesting to see such a major movement of art, even if it is just across the river. I have been in this position of carrying priceless works from one side of the room to the other – a rather delicate and nervous feat. This has been taken to a whole new level. I also […]
This is worth a repeat. I applaud the Riksmuseum for attempting to bring notice to one of their most iconic paintings. I hope individuals inside the mall found it interesting, and maybe thought, why not take a look at the real thing. I think museums around the world need to be more creative in reaching […]
