Whitney

On friday My father, Christiane and myself paid a visit to the Whitney gallery of American art.

it's in an old brutalist building, and normally contains excellent work. This time however, the artwork was a little disappointing. Even the Edward Hopper show didn't have his classic Nighthawks, which is more or less the only piece by him anyone has heard of. It would be like having a best of Ram Jam without Black Betty.

Anyway, thankfully the place threw up some interesting photo opportunities such as Christiane's doppelganger


(she's the one on the left... or is she?)

And a man fast asleep in a stairwell


We checked, he wasn't a piece of art. Although that would have been cooler.
