tonight i went to chelsea and the Whitney.
nothing in chelsea that we saw was really really note worthy, somethings i already saw and then others were somewhat not my style, and i didnt think they were that great, alot of minimalist ideas, i forgot my list from julie and hannalina so that will be next weeks post....
anyway, at the whitney, we saw georgia O'Keeffe. i really enjoyed the use of her colors, they were so extreme but created sutch depth and dynamic abstraction. there were a ton of paintings and only some of them really cought my eye, its really unbeliveable how many things you can look over becasue one painting is so striking. it was very crowed, a friday night when you way whatever for enterence, it was just hard to stay in one spot and really enjoy a painting but there were times where one would really hold your eye and you could see the different hues, tones, saturation, and balance. it was almost musical the way they flowed together so well but the way it bounced back and forth. her flower paitings i thought were incrediable, i just really enjoyed her use of color. but more the abstract landscapes really held me in place, i just throughly enjoyed staring into these feilds of color and abstration. the landscape ones made less sence to me, but i enjoyed them more becuase i didnt already have a preexisting veiw of "flowers"
anyways i would really like to see what the painting class list has in store...
