Afternoon Nocturne

Taking the 54th Street entrance (the supposed true entrance according to the architect Yoshio Taniguchi, who should know) of the Museum of Modern Art to get to the ground level bookstore on the 53rd Street side, I was pleased to see that they installed a new piece that made me stop and look for a quick bit.  Two pieces, in fact, which are somewhat organic shaped terrariums, one a "slug" and another an "egg"entitled Nocturne of the Limax maximus by Paula Hayes.   Well, aside from the fanciful shapes, i found that a bit of greenery, a bit of real life, was the perfect pick me up for a somewhat sluggish (pun intended) afternoon.

By the way, no, I did not find anything in the bookstore, but this was inspiration enough for the day.
