also have my old pair of shoes in the works for you, but with french

life will be terribly hectic for a while, so they may go on hold.

Just wrote the museum.  I'll let you know if they reply.  I meant to write the name down, but my husband was wanting to move on and I was sure it woud be listed in the brochure.  Wrong! 

Go to the Genuis Bar (such a funny name) and get fixed up, quick!

Those shoes are superhero shoes!  What a fun idea!

Laura,

Back now.  Thanks for the ipad tip, on typing.  Will have to try that.  Now comes the fun part...unpacking!   At least I know now what to pack for Seattle.  We are going back sometime later this year.

 

I was certain I had the name of that artist, in the brochure,but it wasn't.  I was staring into the cabinet and listening to a docent giving a private tour; dividing my attention between the bits, I over heard from her conversation, and my husband who didn't have any interest in that exhibit

.

I'm pretty sure she said the artist was a local one woman who had been influenced by African travel.  They kind of reminded me of those ugli dolls?  I'll give the museum a call tomorrow and see they can give me her name.  They were bunched together in a cabinet and very, very interesting.  They were the kind of dolls, a person would fashion out of what's on hand.  Thought it would be a quick Google, but Seattle seems to have LOTS of dolls.  Since I am not a collector, I had no idea!   Regular dolls are not really my thing.  I raised a son and didn't play with dolls very much as a child.

 

What attracted me to these dolls was they had a frayed, used look to them and I like that much more than pretty. A special kind of beauty.

 

I'll google McQueen.  I've never been to the Met!  Would love to go to MOMA.  We usually travel west though.

Hi Laura, Yep, I miss our little morning chats. it's hard to do when I do not have my computer with me! My husband has to carry his work computer (yes on vacation!) & his Mac, so I just take along my iPad. usually we are hardwired and do not have wireless when we travel. Just happens this hotel has wireless.

Saw the Nick Cave exhibit yesterday!
Frigging awesome! Makes me want to hang onto every fiber and piece of junk that crosses my path.

Also saw an African doll exhibit and though of you.
I need to research this lady more. Very primitive dolls made from found stuff. Forgive the misspells and other. Not used to this keypad!

Back in action early week. We fly back this am, but don't get in until midnight! Time difference exhausts me. Seattle is great though. We had wonderful meals, great hotel, etc. Made a few pieces of mail art.
