Dürer to de Kooning at the Morgan Library in NYC

Last week I went to the Morgan Library and saw the Dürer to de Kooning: 100 Master Drawings from Munich exhibition.  The show is divided in two rooms, one dedicated to old masters drawings, the other to works by modern artists.  The show offers wonderful drawings for every taste.  For those who like classical works this show is a must see.  It includes incredible drawings by Raphael, Titian, Michelangelo, Pontormo, Leonardo da Vinci etc. For more details here is a link to the show.  Enjoy!

Robert Armetta shows at SUNY

A wonderful video describing Robert Armetta's show at Farmingdale State Collegecan be seen here.  The show is elegant and inspiring, and definitely worth the trip to Long Island. I had a great time at the opening, chatting with enthusiastic artists, and studying the artwork carefully.  I learned a thing or two from this great artist and teacher. Check it out!
