Red paint has been imported to return "Jerusalem Stabile" to its former self. I did not find any mention of the "White Calder". What am I missing?

I always like his works and I can't stand that white monstrosity! I didn't click on the link. I will now.<BR/>I left art school to come to Israel. One thing led to another and I found myself married and settling Gush Katif instead of finishing art school in Israel. I returned to my high school hobby of jewelry making because I either don't have the time or don't have the space to go back to drawing, oil painting etc.<BR/>HadassaHadassa DeYounghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00253596063646903000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-40662868670395535662008-11-07T14:41:00.000+02:002008-11-07T14:41:00.000+02:00Where ever I am, I look at things as if through a ...Where ever I am, I look at things as if through a camera lens.

I was wearing your earrings when I took that picture.<BR/>Why do you refer to the white thing as "pseudo?"<BR/>Interesting read on the string bridge.

I compare it to the pyramid installed in the courtyard of the Louvre in Paris: well designed but totally incongruous.<BR/>HadassaHadassa DeYounghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00253596063646903000noreply@blogger.com
