Modern!


I was just re-reading my very first post here and I see that I promised to write about architecture. As if I knew anything about it. Still, I did see an amazing documentary over the Holidays on the design and construction of Tadao Ando's Modern Museum of Art in Fort Worth, Texas. Since I was there this past weekend, my kind host, Dwain Cannon, made a gracious detour on our way out West for the annual Coleman County Quail Hunt in order that I might take this atrocious cell phone photo (too much parking lot, not enough sky or building).

  1. Another cool Houston museum is the Menil Collections:

    This, though with the exception of the little carved boat by the exit, I am no fan of Twombly's
