“Rei Kawakubo for Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between—Gallery Views”

Clothing is art? Not sure, go see this exhibit and then decide. The fabrics, tailoring, wigs and colors fuel this question. If that isn’t enough all of the pieces literally prompt you to decide with titles such as:

Absence/Presence
Design/Not Design
Fashion/Anti-Fashion
Object/Subject
Clothes/Not Clothes

The exhibit is cozy in size and can be viewed in under 45 mins. I love that the exhibit allows viewers to take any route through a maze of pure white massively curved walls, where the clothing peeks through at every turn.

The Guggh, the Guggh, the guggh is on fire

For some reason when I think of going to a museum on the weekend, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum always comes to mind. It does help that the building itself is a work of art and you’re a stone’s throw away from great food options as well as Central Park! This time around I had the pleasure of viewing the large scale, ZERO: Countdown to Tomorrow, a diverse and experimental collection of art work following World War II. This visit was extremely poignant in showcasing new methods and definitions of art in conjunction with the new year. The Guggh never disappoints.

Until the next….
