The Guggenheim - Cattelan

I like to share my "field trips" with you,

but I'll admit I had second thoughts about today's field trip.

NYC - The Guggenheim 

 

 A six story atrium

featuring the installation -  All - by Cattelan

Disturbing, perplexing, unsettling

At first you're captivated by the immensity of it all - 

Yup - that's a horse hanging there!

there's lots of taxidermy.

 Yes, an elephant in a ghost costume,

positioned over the 2 dogs,

 A steer with motorcycle handlebar horns.

Picasso showed up - larger than life.

See the Z's for Zorro - there were many of them.

 Picasso showed up again as the focal point

in a Roy Lichenstern-esque piece.

A wall of faces - don't know the meaning to this.

I've spared you the truly disturbing

- you're welcome - 

Interesting, yes.

Have you been?

What did you think?

Stopped by MOMA - great font exhibit.

Dinner - Eataly - 

Mario Batali's massive restaurant / grocery store featuring all things Italy - YUM!
