We had a shuttle bus from the hotel across the Queensboro Bridge which has two levels of vehicles going across it, we then walked to short distance to the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) which was good, but not sure I would swap it for the Tate, although the exhibition of Frank Lloyd Wright drawings was stunning, and added another dimension to what we already knew from the book we have with pictures of the buildings that he designed that were built.
We found quite a few of their pieces we has seen before when they were on tour such as Frieda Kahlo, Picasco, Kandinsky, Boccioni, Braque.
Sadly, we failed to photograph the sculpture by Boccioni that was in the same style.
We then walked around the south east corner of Central park, having done the south west a few days earlier. So, the north end is on our list for September.
We then got the shuttle back to the hotel in Queens and walked from there down to MoMA PS1 which has contemporary art. The incidental stuff seems more interesting than most of the exhibits
But the collection of small pictures by Maureen Gallace, many of little houses without any windows or doors was brilliant. The colours we all very muted, and the pictures all a very similar size, and displayed sparely on white painted brick walls.
We then went back to the hotel before our late flight to Denver (don’t fly with Frontier if you can avoid it – worse seats than RyanAir and it was a 4 hour flight).
