Last Friday I went in NYC for a job interview ( more on that some other time). Before the interview I spent some time at the Drawing Center, looking at Gerhard Richter’s show and found a treasure of a book about one of my favorite artists, Ree Morton. Later, on my way home , I stopped by Chelsea to see Brice Marden and Thomas Nozkowski. Job or no job -It was an inspiring day for art.
