Grows from
My own growth, not where Namjoon pointed. A museum I visited on my own.
The door - why it matters
(fill in: what this visit was, what stopped me.)
Encountered here
- Philip Guston Now (2022, the touring retrospective Namjoon pointed at). Seen 2022-09. The visit that confirmed Guston as a non-bloom in person.
- Moon Jar - Joseon dynasty, early 18th century. The one I went looking for.
- Antibes, The Pink Cloud - Paul Signac, 1916.
- Port of Saint-Cast - Paul Signac, 1890.
- Two Peasant Women in a Meadow - Camille Pissarro, 1893.
- Composition: Standing Figure - Jean Hélion, 1935.
