Matisse: Radical Invention, 1913-1917
July 18-October 11, 2010
The Museum of Modern Art
For lovers of Matisse, there's a large-scale show of this great artist's work at MoMA. Comprising nearly 110 of the artist's works -- paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints -- this show sheds light on Matisse's evolution as an artist and explores his working process and the revolutionary experimentation of what Matisse called his “methods of modern construction.”
Click on the link above and take a tour via The New York Social Diary with author and photographer Jill Krementz. The next time you're invited to an "event" and feel that you don't have anything to wear, you'll especially enjoy the "outfits" the patrons wore to the opening. Anything goes, so just close your eyes and pick anything out of your closet. Nobody really cares what you are wearing. Footwear noted includes flip flops, clogs, and L.L.Bean Duck Boots worn by Bill Cunningham from The New York Times.

The Authentic Tudors | National Portrait Gallery

I tried my best to get really interested in The Tudors on Showtime but just couldn't. I thought the actor playing King Henry VIII was just too slight of build to be believable. The Tudors in this double portrait have some meat on their bones.

Dead Celebrity Font | Helvistica
This made me laugh. Elvis would have loved having Helvetica, the 1957 sans-serif Swiss font turned into Helvistica.

Harriet Beecher Stowe | On Architecture
This quote is still true in America for the most part. There aren't that many new houses being built that can stand the test of time either architecturally or structurally.

Beatrix Potter Hated Publicity
I'm so glad she succeeded in becoming an old woman. On moving to the Lake District, Potter became engrossed in breeding and showing Herdwick sheep. She became a respected farmer, a judge at local agricultural shows and President of the Herdwick Sheep Breeders' Association. Read more . . .
