civilized ku # 2128 ~ how does this art look with my food
Late tomorrow or early Thursday, I'll be heading out to NYC to attend an event at Baang + Burne Contemporary, which is self-described as an unconventional art gallery with the spirit of an indie rock band. Don't know what that means but I guess I'm gonna find out.
I'll also find out about Kris Graves and his work, who/which is featured at the gourmet dinner event at the gallery. I might also make it to the Cindy Sherman retrospective exhibition at MOMA. And, as always when visiting NYC, a gallery crawl in Chelsea is also on the itinerary.
civilized ku # 2123 ~ different breeds
Different breeds of chickens = different colored eggs.
addendum: I failed to mention that the Asgaard Farm eggs were part of an all-Asgaard omelette - Asgaard eggs + Asgaard pork Andouille sausage + Asgaard goat cheese = delicious.
civilized ku # 2076 ~ a reference
Just in case you missed the Reference notification on the emotionally charged ~ a question entry, Andreas Manessinger responded to the topic on his site.
civilized ku # 2068 ~ remnants
I have surrendered to the fact that I am constitutionally unable to walk into my kitchen without seeing a picture making opportunity. To a certain extent, I feel as though I am beginning to channel my inner Sudek.
Josef Sudek, aka: the Poet of Prague, is one of my all-time favorite picture makers. Most of his picture making life was spent roaming the streets, parks, gardens of his beloved Prague. One writer referred to this as:
... his exploration led him through the streets and sites of Prague, working, it would seem, from the outside in.
However, later in Sudek's life, as age and limited mobility set in, the same writer opined:
... he began orchestrating from the inside out, concentrating on private subjects - the window of his studio, the garden outside, simple still lifes within.
To be certain, I am not at all hindered by neither age nor limited mobility. I still have a very active picture making life of working from "the outside in". However, in a picture making manner not evident earlier in my life, I also seem to be increasing attracted to working from the "inside out"*.
In light of this development, I find it necessary to start a new picturing category titled simply home. While there are many pictures here on The Landscapist which could be retroactively labeled with that tag, I will not be expending the time and effort to do so. I would much rather spend that time and effort editing / organizing those pictures into a suitable folder in my archives.
However, from this day forward, I will be including that tag with my pictures when appropriate.
FYI, you can see some of Sudek's "inside out" pictures here. Although, be forewarned, even though I think them to be rather obvious (easy to spot), they are not categorized as such within this random overview of his work.
*Armchair psychologists should feel free to chime in on why this is so. In fact, I encourage it because it could be a very interesting topic, re: why people picture what it is they picture.
