Geoff doesn't necessarily say #NoCapes, but he DOES want you to properly appreciate the surgeon's cloak!

Got our tickets to the Frick. I’ve been waiting for the refurb to be finished and I’m glad the timing works out that we get to see the Gainsborough exhibit #MuseumNerd

Just another Saturday at #TheBroad in DTLA to see Jeffrey Gibson: The Space in Which to Place Me. From the beadwork to pixelated gradients & powerful messages, Gibson's art celebrates identity and activism.  🌈

A photograph of 'The Italian Woman' painting by Vincent Van Gogh, as viewed in Paris at Musée d'Orsay. The painting is of a seated, woman dressed in an embroidered blouse and a fanciful, multicolor skirt that has a patchwork look.

Detail of the multicolor skirt or blanket in Vincent Van Gogh's 'The Italian Woman.' It has a patchwork quilt look of reds, oranges, pink, aqua, green and black.

Hmm, why I was drawn to Van Gogh's 'The Italian Woman' at the Musée d’Orsay? Was it the #color? The patchwork-like #pattern? What about you?

Helmet in the Shape of a Crouching Rabbit
Japanese 17th century
Higher ranking samurai also wanted to stand out so that their military achievements would be noticed on the battlefield. This trend gave rise, i.a., to the highly individualized helmet form of the kawari-kabuto.

The entire cranial portion of this kawari-kabuto is made from one piece of iron and shaped to represent a crouching rabbit, a technique referred to as ichimai-uchidashi. The unlacquered iron is beautifully contrasted with a neckguard (shikoro) of four rows, three of which are lacquered red, and with the bottom row being covered in gilded leather.

Yesterday’s NYC trip was great! Visited NYPL, the Met, and MoMA. So much to see, so little time to do it. I will have to go back to the Met again. #museums #museophile #museumnerd
