Something tells me the artist had different intentions with the reading.

The MOMA has an outdoor sculpture area. You can even throw a coin into the water. Don’t forget to make a wish!

Scared that coming to the MOMA may lessen your time for fine dining? Nonsense! The MOMA has an upscale restaurante where you and your loved one can spend time together eating great food while leaving more time for other activities around the city.

If you visit the Moma during the winter and have bags and coats to check, you may encounter a line such as this. Plan accordingly!

I’m not sure if his food is Kosher, but it is made daily! (I think)

And he says “Not separate, CLOSER” Hm……

(Helen Levitt. New York. 1981. Chromogenic color print (printed c. 2005). 18 x 11 15/16″ (45.7 x 30.4 cm).)

I was not interested in this photography before I read the title. The title said New York, and somehow I thought it fit with the photo perfectly even though one would imagine the peaceful photo like this would never be taken in the city. Helen levitt captures the very essence of New York City’s street life. New York is indeed a stressful city with a whole lot of traffic and pollution going on 24/7. However, with many parks and trees around, a person can always take time and relax in the middle of crazy chaos. And that’s what I love about New York: you actually appreciate and know how to enjoy the privacy and the short relax time.

When first passing by Laurie Andersons’ O Superman, I was initially attracted to it because it was the only video in the room. I thought that I was watching a music video at first, but after a few seconds I was not sure what I was seeing. I am still not so sure. The video is half sung and half spoken. Most of the video is simply the word “HA” repeated many times in order to create the background tune for just about the entire length of the video. The tone is very soothing and the vocals seem to have an electronic sound, created by some sort of machine. The visuals of the video, like the vocals are very simple, yet captivating. The first word that came to mind when viewing this video was “trippy.” I am not sure what message this video is trying to convey and to be honest; I am not totally convinced that Laurie Anderson knows what message she is trying to convey. It remains very open to interpretation.
