OK, got to get over to the Frick Collection - maybe I’ll go later today or this weekend…why?   Just read the review of the show at the Frick Collection  till Jan 28th, 2007 called Masterpieces of European Painting From the Cleveland Museum of Art”  .

“Yet the paintings in this show, which have been selected and installed by Colin B. Bailey, the Frick’s chief curator, with assistance from Margaret Iacono, assistant curator, transcend the “masterpieces from” genre and talk among themselves to a remarkable degree. They form a carefully linked seminar on the riveting ways that material, subject and sensibility can collaborate on canvas (or wood) and also on how works of art illuminate one another. Extending John Berger’s famous title, the show might be called “Ways of Seeing Paintings.”

I’ll have more to say when I see the paintings.  I need to go to the Frick anyway, to see the other show on Cimabue - never made it over there.

And I want to remember to go by my studio and paint this weekend too…..I need to paint - to express all of this.  But writing helps too.
