Back in September I made a quick little trip up to NYC. Though I've been to the city several times, this was my first time visiting both the Whitney and the Guggenheim. At the Guggenheim (though they were in-between shows) I couldn't help but feel like I was in a Matthew Barney film. Not normal.

Some highlights included...

Heatwaves in the Swamp: The Paintings of Charles Burchfield
at the Whitney

Julie Mehretu: Grey Area
at the Guggenheim

Christian Marclay: Festival
at the Whitney

We caught, by chance, the live performance of this Marclay film set to music. It was 30 minutes long and never once boring. I couldn't stop thinking about John Baldessari.
