That Painting Has Legs!


I went to the Museum of Modern Art today with Stan and Ann to see the Stephen Shore retrospective.  He is an amazing photographer, and his most interesting work was done with 4x5 and 8x10 view cameras, and there are some really large photographic prints.  The three of us really enjoy seeing exhibits together because we bounce ideas off each other and because many times we have slightly different perceptions of works of art.  What was interesting about this room is that large photographs were suspended by wires from the ceiling.  There are two prints mounted back to back.  So Stan happened to be looking at the photograph on the back, and I saw this image which made it look as if the painting had legs!

I laughed pout loud when I read your title! That painting is huge! Very clever for the museum to mount them in the middle of the room. betsey
