be still, my foolish art

The Palazzo Morando is an historic palace on a 

fashionable side street in Milan.

Built in the 1500’s, it was home to a series of wealthy and influential Milanese families over the centuries.

When the owner, a countess with no heirs died in 1945, she donated the building and its contents to the city.

As timing would have it, 

World War 2 had recently destroyed The Milan Museum.

And since the Palazzo was already filled with spectacular artifacts, fresco paintings and precious antiquities, the city made it into a new museum.

Later, the palace specialized its mission to fashion history, 

and it was the Manolo Blahnik shoe show that brought me in.

The opulence and excellence of craft in both the building and the footwear was simply jaw dropping.

Room after room of extraordinary artworks and antiques are more than enough to justify a visit.

But the Manolo exhibit itself was equally remarkable.

It led the viewer through his artistic process, from watercolor concepts and paper patterns...

....then to hand cut leather and fabric to hand assembly.

Every shoe is its own work of art.

The juxtaposition of contemporary art within this exceptional building was a real treat.

I was just overjoyed.

Seriously!

that’s (sigh) entertainment

Hollywood’s ego knows few bounds

and they played right into the President’s hands.

Trump’s ego thrives on the oxygen of attention.

The Emmy's should have ignored him last night and diminished him.

Instead, their own needs kept him front and center 

in their own show.

Proof positive you don’t have to be smart to be entertaining.

retail is losing its mind

keeping it reel

Some men go to church and think about fishing.

I’d rather go fishing and wonder about the existence of God.
