top 5 shows
Cardiff and Central Park, perfect together...
Top 5 shows I want to see this fall:
1. Directions-Janet Cardiff, Words drawn in water - at the Hirshhorn
I experienced Cardiff’s “Her Long Black Hair” last summer and it was amazing. Loved it. Made me think A LOT. Plus her “tour” gave me a perspective on Central Park that I had never had before. And here I thought I knew the west side like the back of my hand. I guess others liked it too because they brought it back this summer. So check it out if you’re in NYC or if you make it to DC and do this new walk, please email me!
2. MASTERS of American Comics - The Hammer Museum and The Museum of Contemporary Art (oh, and Phoebe Washburn’s lobby installation sounds like fun, too)
Maybe it’s just the phantom pain from not going to ComiCon this year but I think this could be fun.
3. Scene of the Crime: Photo by Weegee – At the G.
Come on! It’s WEEGEE. Do I even need to say more?
4. Mavericks of Color Photography from the Collection – In Philly
My love affair with 70s photography continues. Yeah, I know this show isn’t all about Eggleston but it’s the main reason I’d go to see it.
5. Robert Adams: Turning Back, A Photographic Journal of Re-exploration – SFMOMA
Rephotographics meets New Topographics, I’m in. This show also happens to be located in the city that’s fast becoming my second home. I might even get to go to Aziza this time. BTW, Happy Birthday K!)

Thanks for the birthday wishes, Lisa. I'm in for the Adams show and Aziza. I plan to try the fleur de sel rimmed almond margarita at dinner on Saturday. Yum!
