This fascinating article in the New York Times (November of 2022) tells the story of how this 1987 artistic treasure, LUNA LUNA , conceived by artist Andre Heller was lost, then found, then hidden in storage in Texas and recreated by a handful of visionaries and a rapper named Drake yes, that Drake, came to be. We went last Thursday and had a delightful visit to this fun, fanciful, musical artistic experience. You need about an hour or so to experience the depth of the art and the story. It is at The Shed in Hudson Yards and is on through January 5th. It is fun for the whole family.

Flowers make us happy. We expect to see flowers in the spring but there is a special joy in seeing them pop up in fall. Hudson Yards once again presents the flower show Fleurs de Villes. This year the theme is ARTISTE – a floral series paying homage to remarkable artists spanning various disciplines. Fleurs de Villes ARTISTE features 15 fresh floral mannequins, each created by a different florist and inspired by accomplished artists from disciplines such as ballet, impressionist painting, literature, culinary arts, opera and more. From contemporary visionaries and trailblazers, to Masters throughout history, Fleurs de Villes ARTISTE celebrates art in all its forms. This beautiful display is on through October 13th on the first level at Hudson Yards. Go and smell the roses!

This week’s invitation to a BBQ on the 62nd floor in the new Hudson Yards area was an offer I surely would not refuse. Generous friends, great conversation, delicious food and amazing views. Thanks Joe, Tony, Donald and Rich.
