I went to see Fred Sherry Plays Zorn on Monday night. It was such a great evening.
World premiere of “777″( three cellists) Discussion lead by Charles Wuorinen( composer) with Fred Sherry and John Zorn, “Amour fou(1999)” piano, violin and cello, another discussion, solo cello work title “Untitled ( for Joseph Cornell)( 1999)” and again “777″.
“777″ started very disharmony sound, but when you listened it , it was actually harmonied together. It was a long tme ago that I used to listened to one CD which had John Zorn’s work, then long time I did not hear his music. But this performance, he gave me so many different sides of music. every work sounded different from each other. It was just amazing.
“Untitled ( for Joseph Cornell)” has a very interesting story that Zorn, in his childhood, lived in Queens where Cornell lived few doors down from his place. Knowing him as a person, eating icecream at the deli, strange man on the corner… all other aspects…and of course his art work inspire Zorn to make this solo.
I love this “works & process” at Guggenheim. You get to know the artist!and we came out after this performance, they were putting new exhibition. Interesting to see how they were putting this cars up in the air…

It was smaller in person than I had imagined it from DS+R’s renderings.

On one of my few free days in London, a group of us trekked out to the Tate Modern, on the bank of the Thames River. The Tate modern was built from a defunct power plant that the Swiss architects Herzog and De Meuron re designed. It was one of their first major commissions, which then put them on the map as being one of the most prestigious architecture firms in the world, going on to complete the De Young museum in San Fransisco, which Ms. Sloane documented
One of the most eye catching pieces we saw at the Tate, were a group of slides winding down the museum, by the artist Carsten Holler. He built these slides from different levels of the museum, each ending on the vast Turbine Hall, the central meeting point of the museum.
