de kooning

de kooning
i’m heading to new york city in october, and there will be a de kooning retrospective at the moma while i’m there. last week while reading about the retrospective, i learned about the pulitzer prize-winning biography by mark stevens and annalyn swan. i think the retrospective be even more intense if i devour the biography first.

it’s 615 pages, and i’ve been averaging about 2 books a year. i’ve got 5 weeks to go… and i’m on page 9…

happy weekend!

    Well, I know what you’re doing this weekend! Or at least what you should be doing if you want to finish this book before your trip. (I really should read a book instead of blogs.)
