Bre Pettis I Make Things

We got back from NYC and it was good to see the kitty and smell the good soup Jennifer made. We didn’t get to do everything and see everyone we wanted to, but we did a lot considering we both had a cold.

Some of the highlights were:
-Walking through the park on thursday night at twilight with the snow coming down hard.

-Seeing Sarah Morris’ Los Angeles Video.

-Seeing Calder’s Circus and Bill Viola’s video at the Whitney.

-Even though I hate Warhol, I loved seeing his video installation at MOMA.

-Going to tons of galleries in Chelsea and finding out that there is just as much crap being shown in galleries in NYC as there is here in Seattle.

-Going to see Jabu, a play about Uno Roi’s creator and winning an award of whoppers from the bosom of Ma Ubu for my posture.

-Walking everywhere.

-Watching bad reality tv in our hotel room until very late.

-Sleeping in to noon every day.

It was a nice trip! I especially liked the walk through the snow–It was so nice to finally see some!
In addition to the great art, I also enjoyed the star-sightings and the people watching. Very interesting! The best part, though, was spending it with you, Bre.

I’m so envious you all went to NY. Yes, its true, there is as much bad crap in New York galleries as the homeland of Seattle. The snow picture makes me cold though.
