belmont stakes







we spent all day saturday at the races. belmont is a beautiful park; cavernous space furnished with painted wooden benches, classic green wood walls. what fenway park is to baseball belmont is to racing. because it was the day of the belmont stakes, the diverse crowd was much bigger than usual, made up of serious bettors, weekend wagerers and spectators.

the artist was present





we were at MoMA on memorial day when mayhem broke out. it was the end of the maria abramovic show. as the artist and performer/ participants converged, the cheering crowd swelled and went crazy- people were running through the museum to the overlooking balconies to witness or just to find out what was happening. guards linked arms and stood in front of the throngs crowding toward the overlooks, trying vainly to move people along. on every floor people craned their necks and stretched camera clutching hands over the glass rails, as the crowd downstairs roared and clapped continuously for 15 minutes.
