Whitney Afternoon

January 29, 2018 - 7:57pm

Great day today  
I rejoined the Whitney 
and saw some great shows.
Im not a huge Laura Owen's fan but I like the way she works and thinks about life and art

there's a couple friends the show made me think of, there's alot there about painting and image making
very like David Hockney.  Though her actual use of paint doesn't appeal to me.

 

The collection at the Whitney is so great
it was good to see the old favorites

     

 

   I keep getting knocked out by early Alex Katz paintings.  The thing that gets me is the absolute looseness and dead on accuracy. I want that.
