When I first arrived, I was directed towards the small gallery where the models and drawings for the new building were located. When I left the building, I had no idea where to go. I asked some other people if they had any idea which way to go, and a man who introduced himself as Nick (Nicholas Karytinos) indicated that I should follow him and his friends. When we got to the lunch tent, everyone was standing around talking and nibbling. I talked with some people and thought I had done better in collecting people's names who I photographed than I actually had. As you can see from the previous entry, I didn't do that so well. See the previous entry and the following five entries.]]>
As I was finding a place to sit, I chatted for a moment with these three people. These are the people who led me to the tent. See the previous two entries and the following four entries.]]>
This is the table where I sat. Lunch was pretty good. We had roasted carrots, roasted squash, potatoes au gratin, and quiche. See the previous three entries and the following three entries.]]>

This was near the end of dinner, quite spread from the front opening of the tent back through the rest of the tables. That was because there was a dancer dancing just outside the tent entrance. We all stood up to be able to watch. After dancing for a while the dancer moved to the right and took a little while for the people sitting at the entrance to realize they were supposed to follow the dancer. She led us, like a parade, to the poured concrete slab for the new building. She continued to dance for a while on the slab. See the previous five entries and the following entry.]]>
Steven Holl performed a Shinto like a ceremony to inaugurate the building site. He blew a huge horn for a groundbreaking, even though the ground had already been broken and the slab poured. Steven's daughter blew a little toy trumpet for the ceremony. Someone tried to put a robe over her shoulders as well, but she kept shrugging it off. The second part of the ceremony consisted of Steven pouring salt in all the corners of the slab. The salt was to "protect" the framing to that was next to be done. I usually have a nice time at the ‘T’ Space openings. On my way home, I realized something about the event left me with a sadness.]]>
Some time ago, Tom Ellman asked me if I would come to a fundraiser for the Barrett Art Center. Tom is the President of the board at Barrett Art Center. He was going to see if Vassar College would buy a table. The college did buy a table, so I went to the fundraiser. There was a purchase raffle for donated artwork as well as for taking tours and dinners. They served us lunch. There were quite a few people there that I knew. See the following two entries.]]>

The band was good but our table was directly in front of it so it was quite loud. They would have been a good band to dance to. I recognized the lead singer who runs an art gallery on Main Street, in downtown Poughkeepsie. See the previous two entries.]]>
The New York Studio School held an Auction and Dinner. At this event Martin Puryear, Thomas Nozkowski and Calvin Tomkins were honored.

We received an email from Casimir Nozkowski asking us if we would talk on camera to a young filmmaker, Gabriel Rodriguez-Fuller. He is making a film about owning a Tom Nozkowski painting. I About what it is like to live with one of his works. He got here about 3:00pm in Roy's taxi. It was very nice to see Roy, he is the entry before this one. So we had tea and then he miked us, set up a light and we all talked.]]>
He made a film about Thomas Nozkowski's paintings and the places they were, and the collections they were in. If this turns out to have been a visit where he didn't film, I'll let you know if I find out.]]>
I was sitting in the kitchen and see Gabrielle walking surreptitiously toward the table on the patio. She was just putting an envelope on the table, when I said "Hi!" which some what startled her. She was dropping off an anniversary card and thank you note for the party and didn't want to disturb us. So we got to visit for a bit.]]>
After I sent out the last video of the garden Gabrielle emailed to say how much she liked it. We emailed back and invited her to come for a visit. She emailed and<br />
said how about this afternoon. And here she is.]]>
Cathy and I were in the city looking at shows. We ran into Merrill and Chris at the Cecily Brown exhibition at Gargosian. We saw them again when we were leaving the April Gornick Exhibit and they were going in.]]>

We arrived in Stockholm on Thursday, May 2nd. John Rasimus picked us up at the airport in Stockholm and drove the 2 and 1/2 hours to Falun. He dropped us off at our hotel, the Bergmastaren. The hotel, a cashless establishment (typical in Stockholm), served breakfast and dinner. The hotel contributed some of the cost for the rooms to the Galleri Se Konst. The Galleri provided the rest. It was a smallish hotel and a lovely place to stay. The next day, Friday, Rasimus picked us up at 10 am. We all spent the morning organising and hanging the show. Catherine and I gave our input into where the drawings should go. Rasimus and Gunilla did the physical hanging. When the show installation was completed, we all went to lunch at the Dalarnas Museum, the location of my lecture.]]>
Saturday Morning, Rasimus picked us up from the hotel at 11:15 AM. When we got to the galleri, we needed to coordinate the names of the drawings with their placement. When we were almost finished, people started coming in for the opening, which began at 12 noon and went to 2 pm. See the following entry.]]>

Rasimus had planned to ask me questions and have me talk a bit at the opening. The questions were partly biographical and partly more closely work-related. See the previous four entries.]]>
We went to see The Dark Knight and had dinner before in the food court.]]>
