Finally, a visit to 1o2o3o4o (pretend @instagram has a superscript option for the o’s). I have been wanting to see this site-specific installation by the artist Robert Irwin at @mcasandiego in #LaJolla for quite some time. It did not disappoint. #ibrakeforart #robertirwin #light #art #museums . . . In other news, I got an older person’s discount.
Mojo. . . . Mojo the Gorilla, one of the polygonal animals by Idriss B. Habitat: Park Avenue at 36th Street. He is definitely owning the #urbanjungle. #idrissb #mojothegorill #parkavenue #art #ibrakeforart #sculpture #publicart #nyc
Sometimes I’m driving home from town and I see this art studio and the artist swinging in his hammock and the greenery and the light and the bright colors and I take a U-turn…it’s just too cute not to take a few pics. Just south of @truckstopbz 1.5 miles north of San Pedro #Belize #IBrakeforArt
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face— forever.” George Orwell, 1984. . . . I confess, I had to un-immerse myself and go to the walkway overlooking the Marron Family Atrium. Of course, it was from #GeorgeOrwell, 1984. Thinking of You. I Mean Me. I Mean You. 🎨 = Barbara Kruger is at #MoMA through January 3, 2023. . A visit to the sculpture garden before the crowds descended topped off today’s mid-morning #art expedition. #ibrakeforart #museums #art

Beans, #NYC and #Chicago . . . Finally! The second half of #babybean has arrived at the #JengaBuilding in #NYC. I think the original, #theBean (aka #CloudGate) is likely to remain more famous. Both are by Anish Kapoor. #ibrakeforart #art #publicart #beans #reflections #milleniumpark

Life in the Abstract, Wyatt Kahn (installation in progress). . . . From the #publicartfund press release: “Wyatt Kahn (b. 1983, New York, NY) has examined the relationships between painting and sculpture throughout his career. He has constructed a distinctive visual vocabulary of geometric and representational forms that integrate aesthetic concerns with quotidian objects. Life in the Abstract is Kahn’s first public art exhibition, comprising seven new monumental sculptures fabricated in Cor-Ten steel.” . #cityhallpark #ibrakeforart #publicart #sculpture #art #artintheparks
The Great Debate by Hebru Brantley. . . . Standing 16 feet tall, the sculpture is part of the artist’s "Flyboy" series exploring what a superhero of color would look like. Inspired by the Tuskegee Airmen, the first African-American military aviator pilots (World War II). Their missions were all successful and they had the lowest loss records of all fighter groups. #publicart #art #sculpture #artintheparks #ibrakeforart #batterypark
Happy City, Peter Sis, 2004. #subwayart at the 86th street station on the 4/5/6 line. . . . From the #MTA website: “Peter Sis is a Czech-born artist who also designed the "Subway Whale" posters found in the R142/R142A cars when they first arrived in New York City. Better known as a children's book author, his book entitled Tibet Through the Red Box was a Caldecott Honor winner in 1999.” #ibrakeforart #art #publicart #mosaic #subway #commute #mindfulness
NJP and a laughing gull. Aah, #NYC, how I missed your grit , art, and birds while in the land of the mouse. . . . From midtown to the lower eastside, #NJP. The laughing gull was floating around in the #EastRiver above pier 35. Not an uncommon #gull for these here parts. #streetart #birds #birdsofinstagram #graffiti #publicart #ibrakeforart
Trowel, giant. . . . Weighing in at 2,300 pounds, Plantoir Blue is a collaboration between Claes Oldenburg and his late wife, Coosje van Bruggen. Almost makes me want to garden. #art #publicart #sculpture #ibrakeforart #rockcenter #nyc

#IBM Building. . . . I never knew the #IBM building (590 Madison Ave) is a pentagonal wedge! Also, the #Calder ( #Saurien) has been replaced by #Untitled by #JoelShapiro, an American sculptor. Frankly, I miss the pop of red. The first photo is from today, the photo of untitled was a few weeks ok, and the video of the Calder is vintage January 2020. #nyc #publicart #art #ibrakeforart #architecture #ibmbuilding

“I saw the entire room, my entire body, and the entire universe covered with red flowers, and in that instant, my soul was obliterated and I was restored, returned to infinity, to eternal time and absolute space.” Yayoi Kusama “I love Flower Obsession because for a brief moment in time I see myself as an artist who is collaborating with #kusama and a host of others as we create a piece of art, and a memory that is unique to each of us, of the moment when we carefully stuck a flower on a wall, a stem, a leaf, or an object and then walked away.” nlundebjerg . . #cosmicnature #nybg #yayoikusama #kusama #obliterationroom #ibrakeforart
Remembering that time #YoyoiKusama was not invited to the #venicebiennale1966. . . . She stood with this piece and sold the spheres for $2 each at an unofficial exhibition titled “Your Narcissism for Sale”as a send up of the art market. BTW, the sign at #NYBG is devoid of this context. Easily my favorite piece from #CosmicNature #kusama #ibrakeforart #art #sculpture
