Watched "The Horse's Mouth" on Criterion last night with my 17-yo daughter who's currently assembling her portfolio to apply to art schools.

Beautifully filmed in Technicolor with paintings by John Bratby, the exploration of The Meaning of Art is utterly trenchant & relevant. Also the film is hilarious!

Alec Guinness wrote the screenplay & gives a great performance as the artist. 1958 London looks stunning. The destruction of a huge painting on a brick wall in the final scene is jaw-dropping.

I had a walk through midtown NYC on the East side this morning and snapped some photos. It still has the urban mystique after all this time, feels like the archetypal city.

Looking East on 57th St at 7th Ave in NYC the tall buildings create a wide-angle canyon. The light is red, a truck waits at the light, people with roller suitcase scamper through the crosswalk. Above there are dramatic puffy white and gray clouds in the blue sky.
Looking North up the canyon of Madison Avenue the middle of the frame is an impossibly dense telephoto soup of cars and traffic lights. A large prominent red traffic light dominates the top third of the picture. Two dark-skinned men are loading trash into a garbage truck. A distressed black and white zebra crossing is horizontally at the bottom of the frame.
A modern skyscraper under construction on Madison Avenue. Striking geometry ascends to the sky while on the ground chaotic construction paraphernalia is guarded by two men with fluorescent yellow vests and hardhats. A colorful mosaic pattern of flowers on a billboard extends across the frame. American flags are on display. A businessman with suit and briefcase is passing on the sidewalk, dwarfed.

I have taken up the Gravikord as my latest instrument. It's a 24 string electric harp, inspired by the West African Kora. It was invented by Bob Grawi.

I saw the instrument hanging in The Metropolitan Museum of Art in NY in June with my Godson Vincent, who said "It's the most N to The Power instrument I've ever seen." Next thing I knew I was contacting Bob Grawi & arranging for him to build one for me.

I'll post some music in the coming days...

There's a pile of rattan tusks free for the taking on the SW corner of Grand and Christie at this time.
