Brrrrrr!

It is sooooo cold! That is all I have to say.

Annie Leibowitz in Brooklyn

Other than going to Coney Island once or twice a year, I rarely go to Brooklyn. Not that I have anything against the borough -- i just have no need to go.

Today, however, I sojourned to the very nice Brooklyn Museum to see the Annie Leibowitz exhibit www.brooklynmuseum.org I am a big Annie Leibowitz fan from the early 1990s, when I went to see her exhibit at London's National Portrait Gallery 8 times (you got in for free if you showed your American Express card) and later on, in 2000, when I saw her "Women" exhibit at the Corcoran in Washington DC 3 times (had to pay for each of those!)

So this exhibit was called "Annie Leibowitz: A Photographer's Life 1990 - 2005) and incorporated a lot of the photos I had seen before. But some were brand new, including a stunning one of Nicole Kidman from 2003 and Scarlet Johannsen from 2004. It was crowded but amazing.
