Hey hey, I'm sitting in my Spanish class right now, trying to improve my Spanish skills with my teacher from Peru, haha! So I leave you a quick post about one of my fav topics - ART!
Today you get to see loads of art pieces I found in NYC - in galleries, on the street, I'm a great art spotter ;-) Hope you enjoy the snapshots, have a wonderful Friday, everyone!
Just like SoHo, Williamsburg is one of my favorite New York City neighborhoods due to its art and fashion scene. I always wholeheartedly enjoy watching all the hipsters and artists on the streets there, Williamsburg in Brooklyn is such an inspiring place. Since I am a true street art fan I sometimes get lost in taking pictures of all the graffitis and posters adorning the walls, and the stickers decorating doors and windows. In addition to that you can find unique restaurantson every street corner, and with unique I mean UNIQUE. Every place has its own character - I once went to a restaurant there called Surf Bar... the seats were made of surfboards and there was sand all over the floor, I felt like I was dining on the beach! Dear readers, make sure you'll visit Williamsburg whenever you come to New York City!
Breathtaking, impressive,
dark, fabulous – Alexander McQueen, you are fantastic!
After visiting the
Alexander McQueen exhibition 'Savage Beauty' at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I'm literally
speechless. How could this dark and remarkably creative personality
create something so intensive, so fascinating, so disturbing –
something so different? He completely changed my view of fashion. The
title - 'Savage Beauty' – perfectly matches the exhibit's
atmosphere, the dresses and costumes are amazingly beautiful and
fierce at the same time.You could literally breath in McQueen's
passion for designing! The Kate Moss hologram - Widows of
Culloden, autumn/winter 2006–7 – left me speechless, its
wordless beauty made me cry. Hats off, Mr. McQueen, you made my heart
beat faster – you carried me to a different world!
In his own words: 'There
is no way back for me now – I am going to take you on journeys
you've never dreamed were possible' – A. McQueen
