MOMA - Just Another
Visit
Once a year when I am in New York, I visit the Museum of Modern
Art. This last year was no different. The only thing that was very different,
was the time of the year. This visit was planned for the middle of June in order
to catch the sunny weather. Quite obviously, I had pictured sweltering
temperatures, and I becoming overwhelmed by the obvious
humidity.
But that was the script I prepared , but in practice it was very
different. Did I get the sunny weather? Of course not. It rained most of the
time, and even for the locals, the weather was appallingly bad . Still, I
enjoyed the visit, and did most of the things I planned to do. The following
posts will illustrate my visit to MOMA, and show some of my favourites at the
museum.
You may say the Museum of Modern Art is one of many museums in New
York city, and you are right. But it has always held an important place in my
heart going way back to my student days in Washington, DC. Don't get me wrong I
love the Metropolitan, but I have time enough to visit one museum, it will
always be MOMA.
