The breadth of culture from the sniggering double entendre of a tabloid to the sublime beauty of art, this blog has it all.
Weiner is a gift that keeps on giving as is the art.
We also took in the NY Public Library as well and frankly I was close to tears looking at the Gutenberg Bible, James Tate’s letter to his wife, an original King Lear from 1608, cuneiforms from the 3rd century BCE, Hemmingway’s Nobel prize acceptance speech which he wrote in a book because “it was blowing to hard to write on paper”; Kepler’s Cosmographicum and the first whole Earth photograph. The strange thing also was that this was almost empty of other tourists, maybe there wasn’t a lot of dazzle or razzle to make it attractive.
