Culture. We are part of so many different cultures. I went and read the definition of the word. More like definitions!
Tried to get a direction.
Friday night was the Gallery Crawl in Pittsburgh. I’m adding two from NYC Spring Break trip that seem to fit into my take on the challenge.
Music, Painting, Sculpture , Art and my wonderful teacher Germaine Watkins from Manchester Craftsmen’s Guild with two of his photographs on display Friday night.
I ‘d gone downtown with my friend Steve to check out and take pictures of the students’ artwork at the All City Show.
Great selection!
such a rich offering ruth, i love how there is a cultural district!

“Cultural District – Stop” – says it all 🙂

We are surrounded by culture every day, but many people are not aware of it. It is good to have a choice of blogs that remind us, from time to time, on the beautiful things in our lives. I like very much “Petite danseuse de Quatorze ans” (little dancer fourteen) of Edgar Degas. Exhibition of Degas was in Zagreb last year, and there I saw her.
Is that painting part of the Van Gogh gallery in the Met? It was probably the only time in my life where I spent an entire day in the museum. Thanks for the photographs too, and for reminding me of the time I was in the U.S. Cheers to learning more of each other’s culture! 🙂
Yes it is at the Met. Glad you enjoyed seeing it
I love your photos !

Mixed culture makes a great place 🙂 Wonderful selections!
A very vibrant selection.
Really love especially those massive sculptures!
And when were you at the Clark Art Institute? I’d swear that’s the room that their Degas Dancer is in —
The Metropolitan Museum in NYC
How soon we forget! Oh, well, the Clark does have the Degas dancer also in a large room with Impressionist paintings — but no van Goghs!
(Except an itty-bitty uncharacteristic one in another gallery.)
Love that a city would have a “cultural district” and those sculptures must be something to see in person. This is a great collection you’ve assembled here, Ruth.
