Been doing much of everything, here is the attempt to share most of it with you.
The making of fall bouquets:
A respite in New Caanan, CT satiated the travel itch for an oh so brief moment.
- Philips de Pury auction of Murray Moss 'Dialogues Between Art & Design' The Michael Anastassiades 'kinetic light,' the slender Giacometti bronze a mere 30" in height sold for $3,000,000. Naoto Fukasawa's glass bench for a cool 15k had me transfixed to surfing the sea. My big take home was the auction catalogue.
- Hearing from landscape architect Ken Smith one of many projects is the East River Waterfront Esplanade. Built into the shoreline is a diagonal construction of concrete and stone for a mussle waterbed, a unique feature to rebuild ecology and clean the river water.
- Then to toast an evening with a book launch for Rose Hartman's Incomperable Women of Style
Next moring the spring bulbs were planted deep in the earth and we give a few more horrahs before the bitter cold sets in.
