New Museum
Last weeks travels took me all the way down to the Bowery and the New Museum New York where they were closed due to installing new exhibits on all floors at the same time. Interesting!
However, I did get to see one piece of art on the facade of the building as part of their facade art program. This is Isa Genzken’s Rose II.
The rose sculpture, which measure 28 feet tall, is on loan from a private collector who, as The Observer noted, paid 750,000 Euros for the sculpture.
And the building was designed by recent Pritzker Prize winners SANAA who also designed the interesting glass pavilion in Toledo.
