Mo' Modern, Mo' Art: MoMA

I love MoMA.  When I was at my old firm, I was most dejected when I worked right across the street from MoMA for months, and MoMA was under renovation and relocated to Long Island.  What shitty timing.

Longtime readers may also recall that I lived just steps away from Le Bernardin but never entered because I was working so damn much.  (I finally went inside years later.)

I remain determined to replace my bad memories of NYC with good ones.  Like fun visits to MoMA.  So much better than trial prep.

Mr. Monkey doesn't love art museums like I do, but he's a good sport.  He does acknowledge that art museums are superior to trial prep.

Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Kind Of

I say "kind of" because we didn't actually have time to visit The Modern; we had to hustle to Mr. Monkey's portion of our day before heading to the airport. That was a damn shame. Just look at the gorgeous grounds and lobby!

Picasso and Braque at the Kimbell Art Museum

The first part of Sunday was for me -- a trip to the Kimbell Art Museum to see the Picasso and Braque exhibit. I wrote a report on Picasso and Braque when I was in junior high and have been a fan of Cubism ever since!

Sadly, photos were not allowed, but I really enjoyed the exhibit!

You can take as many pictures as you want of the rest of the museum, though.

The Kimbell Art Museum is a charming slice of culture in Fort Worth. I found it a beautiful refuge from the heat and humidity outside.
