March Madness

By Madeleine Hines (MFA 2014)

 

There is so much to learn, see, and create at the Academy that sometimes I experience FOMO (fear of missing out). During Armory Arts Week in early March, this feeling of "so much to do so little time" is heightened with an influx of art in the city and endless booths to maneuver through. It’s all very daunting--but I love it of course!

Armory Show 2013:

Faculty showing the Armory! Vincent Desiderio's painting with a Santiago Calatrava sculpture. I'm crossing my fingers that I get into his painting class next semester.

A little Morandi gem.

Art fairs can be exhausting - I love Tucker Robbins' art furniture for viewers to rest on.

First time seeing a Philip Pearlstein in person

I'll leave you with yet another self portrait...
