Two large, concrete piers on left and right are supporting a cylindrical building above; the "ceiling" of this plaza show white reinforcing ribs fo the structure. In the sunlight in the middle of the plaza, beyond the piers, one can just make out the white column of water of the decorative fountain there.

These #Openings are beneath the main galleries of the #Hirshhorn Museum of Modern Art, in Washington, DC [USA]. The building is cylindrical, supported by the pylons at left and right. The middle of the cylinder is an open atrium with a large fountain in the center.

Drawing of two heads

Reflections in glass of three figures

Giant words on the walls and floor

I saw so much art today, my head is exploding…in a good way. #drawing #renwick #saam #hirshhorn #nationalgalleryofartdc

A man with red hair and orange shoes sits in a black-vinyl couch, looking through a large, multi-paned window. Outside, across some little distance, is a row of federal buildings, many with columns.

Here's a portrait of Pat in a lounge at the Hirshhorn Museum of Modern Art (Washington DC), looking out over the National Mall toward Constitution Ave. That's the National Archives right of center, with the pediment & columns.

Throwback to Kusama exhibit at #Hirshhorn

Face painted on a guitar as part of that speaker array. Like the speakers with mouths, sound hole is the mouth. Brilliant.

UFO appliqués on the windows, with my friend serving as a body.

My friend greeting one of the surreal characters painted on a wall.

The friends inspect the cool Banksy-Osgemeos collaboration.

Plus it’s fun to interact with the pieces!

White graffiti on a black floor that says “Where did all the wizards go?”

A part of Laurie Anderson’s room full of stream-of-consciousness texts and drawings on the wall and floor at the Hirshhorn Museum. A couple of her thoughts here: “Who Owns the Moon?” and “Are Mountains Awake?”

A green parrot sculpture in the room full of Laurie Anderson’s stream-of-consciousness texts and drawings. A couple of her sayings here: “Fame is the Sunshine of the Dead” and “I’m Lying in the Shade of My Family Tree.”

A large black raven sculpture sits in the room full of Laurie Anderson’s stream-of-consciousness texts and drawings at the Hirshhorn Museum.

The #Hirshhorn Museum also has a multimedia installation “Four Talks” by artist Laurie Anderson in a room filled with her written and drawn musings on various subjects. Sculptures of a raven, a parrot, a canoe and a shelf represent each story. The effect is almost hypnotic.

Title panel for the exhibition “Basquiat x Banksy” (black block letters on an orange wall) at the Hirshhorn Museum in DC, on view until October 26, 2025.

Portrait of Jean-Michel Basquiat, a photo reproduction by Dmitri Kasterine taken in 1986. Basquiat is shown sitting, dressed in a suit and tie with bare feet, with items from his studio around him.

Large, colorful painting by Basquiat titled “Boy and Dog in a Johnnypump.” The boy resembles a skeleton standing with raised arms with the black dog baring its teeth by his side. They are standing in the spray of an open fire hydrant (the johnnypump).

A later (2018) interpretation of Basquiat’s “Boy and Dog in a Johnnypump” by the street artist known as Banksy. The boy is standing in between two police officers who are frisking him and taking down his name, while the dog snarls at one of the officers.

I visited the #Hirshhorn Museum this afternoon and saw two exhibitions. Here are some photos from “Basquiat x Banksy,” on view until October 26, 2025. …

The moon lies awake in a bed in a darkened room saturated with deep reds and blues. Nearby there is a grandfather clock, an oriental rug, and framed family pictures hung on the walls.

Approximately 14-foot tall Osgemeos-style person being abducted by a rainbow beam leading up to a spaceship. In the gallery room's background are three other colorful Osgemeos-style paintings of people and their environments.

Loved this from "Osgemeos: Endless Story" at D.C.'s #Hirshhorn Museum -- O abduzido (The Abductee), 2020.

Monument to Balzac at the Hirshhorn by Auguste Rodin. The famous sculptor captured the legendary writer's likeness and confidence. Rodin's unrefined style in depicting his subjects lets us see their humanity and imagine their troubles...

An aphorism painted on a wall, among other drawings and words. It says: "If you think technology will solve your problems, then you don't understand technology - and you don't understand your problems" - Detail of Laurie Anderson's "Four Talks", exhibited at Hirshhorn Art Museum in Washington, DC

So, at #Hirshhorn Museum in DC, there's a room fully painted by Laurie Anderson

Here's a quote that stuck with me, maybe because working in #IT it resonates somehow.

"If you think #technology will solve your #problems, then you don't understand technology - and you don't understand your problems"
