THE COLOR RUN - Be a Color Runner



The Color Run- happening in Omaha Saturday July 14th.  It's not too late to sign up!  I just joined a team- it will be my first experience running the color run and I'm super excited- this video is amazing.  Reminds me of the Indian Holi festival- an amazing celebration with lots of color!

Francesca Woodman Retrospective- Guggenheim

http://www.guggenheim.org/new-york/exhibitions/past/exhibit/4432 I was fortunate enough to be able to catch the Francesca Woodman retrospective exhibition going on at the Guggenheim while visiting NYC last week. Sadly it is over now but it's still amazing to read about her and her work. I really love her photographs- there's something almost haunting about her self portraits, often taken in run-down old interiors, but they're absolutely beautiful. Even more amazingly about her works is the young age at which she did these, before her life ended prematurely at 22.

Schiaparelli & Prada- Impossible Conversations: The Metropolitan Museum of Art - Audio and Video

The Metropolitan Museum of Art - Audio and Video

I thought this was a really interesting concept for the Costume Institute Gala Exhibition this year at the Met.  Check out the video made for this exhibition that explores the similarities of fashion designers Elsa Schiaparelli (ca. 1930's & 40's)  & the current Miucca Prada.  On display now through August 19th.
