Mein Laptop hatte ein Problem, aber jetzt ist das Ok.
Ich fahre morgen Abend nach München ab und bleibe dort bis Samstag.
Ich kämpfe für meinen Traum.
Today thru June 10:
DECO JAPAN: SHAPING ART AND CULTURE, 1920-1945
Japan Society, 333 E. 47th St., NYC
Admission is free to all on Friday nights, 6-9 PM.
Showcasing the spectacular craftsmanship and sophisticated design associated with both Japan and Art Deco style, this exhibition is the first in the U.S. to explore a little-known brand of pre-WWII modernism borne of competitive ingenuity and vivacious cosmopolitanism… over 200 objects—paintings, jewelry, ceramics, metalwork, and evocative ephemera such as sheet music, posters, postcards, prints and photography—revealing Japan’s license for luxury and ingenuity in design as the country teetered on the brink of totalitarianism. The vitality of the era is further expressed through the theme of the moga (“modern girl”), an emblem of contemporary urban chic the 1920s and ’30s, that ignites this exhibition with sex, satire, and style.
