While I was there, I went to get a fix of NY art which, of course, led me to the MOMA, one of the greatest art museums in the world. While I was there, I saw lots of people taking photos of the artwork which was extremely annoying. So many people using flash photography, I couldn’t believe it!

Since you can get beautiful postcards and books with all of the paintings in them, I decided to shoot a handful of photos (without flash!) of people looking at the paintings. It seemed interesting at the time.


Pablo Picasso


Jackson Pollock


Auguste Rodin


Claude Monet


Vincent van Gogh


Andy Warhol


Salvador Dali

While I was there, I was also lucky enough to view the incredible 11 Spring Street building. It was truly an amazing display of street art.
