Amy Berk Video

I just noticed that videographer David Lawrence posted on-line the video he'd made for the MAGNES as part of fellow stretcher-ite Amy Berk's REVISIONS installation entitled re-Coverings. Please click below to go there.



I came across the video searching for occurrences of "Magnes Museum" on myspace.

I must confess, I have become obsessed. Myspace, that is.

Now that myfriend Billy got me to activate this use of this blogspot.com address Frances Dinkelspiel inspired me to create...Now myfriend Gary Goldstein got me to get into myspace, and now I am now there a lot like now.

Since there is so much "now," and the whole thing seems designed for cliques of teens and twennie-year olds, it is very interesting to me that there is a life there for thirty-to-thirty-five plus-ers.

And when does it meet the needs of those who've reached a more advanced age? I mean my seven'y-something dad might be the most on-line guy I know. Where is he "hanging out"?

A Year-end Letter Update from James and Family

Dear Friends and Family, On the brink of the new year on December 31, 2019 we stood at the foot of Kehinde Wiley's brand new monumental equestrian sculpture in downtown Richmond at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. There were a bunch of families gathered around taking pictures together. Emblematic of this entire year and entitled “ Rumors of War ,” the monument depicts an unarmed Black man in heroic pose atop a horse. The man’s sneakers are in the stirrups, looking back over their shoulder like Napoleon as they ride forward up a ridge . It was a strange harbinger of the year that was, and how it’s going. Kamala Harris will be named our vice president in a few weeks. In between, the apocalyptic has been commonplace; I mean, what a year. Emil started high school this fall. Graduation this past spring from Mark Day School was likely the year’s highlight. Karen is still at Mark Day. This fall they've been doing hybrid learning. It’s the first time Karen and Emil have not been goi...

Review: King Henry VI, Part 2

King Henry VI, Part 2 by William Shakespeare My rating: 5 of 5 stars I have just now gotten to part 2 of the Henry VI plays. the first had amazing speeches and frickin' Joan of Arc and I thought it couldn't get any better. THAN this one's got conjurors who evoke prophetic specters, multiple beheadings, and a mad rebel named Cade who just starts to try to take over the whole country, no Empire for like no good reason then gets killed after hiding ten days without food in a hedgegrove. The language is extraordinary from the get go where pious Henry says, "O Lord, that lends me life, Lend me a heart replete with thankfulness!" I am going to make that my motto! View all my reviews
