sharocks the blogspot: art crawl with kristin: part deux

best part deux: kristin. okay it only took her four years to get back but happy to team up again for an ultimate art crawl. so we started off at the whitney biennial, which we both agreed was underwhelming. there was more concentration on performance art and film. i was interested in sarah michelson's piece, but we did have tickets or time.

me likies tom thayer

we both liked nicole eisenman

werner herzog

other mentionables, but not snapped were:

elaine reichek's embroidery pieces though i like heather l. johnson's compositions better
wu tsang had a packed crowd, which was different than when i saw his work at clifton benevento
oscar tuazon's mazelike piece on the lobby floor with stairs you aren't allowed up on :(

best uplift after a lukewarm biennial: cindy sherman @ moma. woot! now this is what we needed. famed photog who's chameleon-like nature weaves all sorts of characters from scary clowns to gorgeous film stills. totes worth weaving through crowds for this one. also on the same floor, which we breezed through was the print/out exhibition.

kristin made this

best recommendation: phillips de pury. mel and bill have been on me to check out this auction house. kristin was jazzed cause she's been following simon "make it amazing" de pury on work of art. we loved, loved it.
