new york new york :: part 6-1
moma (1 of 2)



Wednesday morning me and Pat got up, got ready and headed out for our second day of art museuming. This time we were visiting the Museum of Modern Art, also known as New Yorks MoMA. I had been here once before on my first and last NYC visit back in 2006 or so, but was excited to check it out for a second time with a much different perspective, having now completed college. I have to say that we probably should have visited them in the opposite order for effect, seeing as MoMA is MUCH smaller. They had a few things there this time that were not present for me the last, such as some paintings by Frida Kahlo, as well as Salvador Dali (Pat's favorite artist). A not so good surprise was the fact that Van Gogh's "Starry Night" was now covered by glass making it impossible to capture the texture of the paint. Boo.

I really thought I would be able to get this post in to one, but it seems that is just not going to happen. So here is the imagery from part 1 of our trip to MoMA, the rest to follow tomorrow.
