The New Whitney

So today was our first visit to the New Whintey museum on the highline.

There was still a little hype about the museum so there was a line going in but it didn’t take that long. B actually decided to get a membership which would actually end up saving money in the long run. We would just have to go two more times this year for it to pay off.

The architecture inside the museum and outside are one of the best parts of the museum. We took lots of pictures obviously.

Gagosian Gallery- Murakami

One of the perks for working at C was that we would expense movies and museum visits as “Team building” actives. We decided to go to the Gagosian Gallery to see the Murakami exhibit.

We got really lucky because the exhibit was ending in a few days. Unfortunately B was not able to go :-(

The exhibit did have his stylistic animated creatures, but the most mind blowing part of the exhibit was the huge size and scale. The figures were at least 20-30feet tall.

Also the metallic reflected surface of some of them was really amazing.

I could not imaging how someone would go about sketching one of these. Would have to be sketched in Rhino from so many angles.
