I really enjoyed my visit to the MoMA. The Demoiselles exhibit was interesting because it really makes you pay attention to detail. The paintings looked like puzzles that you had to solve in your mind. I liked these 2 in particular:

Finding a woman in "Ma Jolie" was a tough task. The second one made me think of Mardi Gras.

Last Friday I went to go see Georgia O'Keeffe's exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art. It was fantastic. Earlier that day I had also gone to the Guggenheim to see Kandinsky's display but I found that I could not connect with it as well as I could with O'Keeffe's work.  In her collection, the main focus of her paintings were flowers.  Sometimes the image would be of a flower explicitly and other times it would be depicting more the essence of what a flower is.

I thought the Alexander String Quartet concert was pretty good, even if the acoustics were poor. (Concrete isn't a good material for the walls of a concert hall.) I haven't heard many live Mendelson or Schumann quartets, or much Mendelson or Schumann at all in a concert hall, so seeing this was certainly different from the more odd avant-garde plays and concerts that we've been going to. However, I was surprised and somewhat disappointed that the concert was only an hour and fifteen minutes long, but I guess it has to be short since tonight is a school night.
