MoMA

Headed down to the Museum of Modern Art today after the gym - spent a couple of hours wandering around the floors and exhibits. There was a lot of good stuff, including a really good exhibition of Edvard Munch and another on new Spanish architecture (sounds weird but there was some purdy buildings in there). The last modern art museum I went to was the Tate Modern in London, and from what I can remember that was more of a bucket-with-flowers-in-it-symbolizing-police-corruption kinda modern art thang. My favs:

The Brooch, Eva Mudocci by Edvard Munch
The Kiss III by Edvard again
The House of Spiritual Retreat by Emilio Ambasz - you can't really see anything, but it's this spectacular house/quiet space on the middle of a hill in the Spanish countryside. Lots of different perspective photos, models and descriptions that makes it sound like the most chillaxed place on Earth - can we have LTM there?
Map of an Englishman by Grayson Perry - again you can really see it, but its an old map with hundred of little towns and villages renamed as "Curiosity", "Shiny" and (fantastically) "Pretentious - Moi?". Close up here. And the name of the river that splits the Island in two? Orgasm. Awesome.
