Could not be happier for having biked to Red Hook.
A semi-random retweet led me to a preview of an Ernesto Caivano show. I nearly didn’t leave the house, but did. The short bike ride restored me and (finally) connected me to the nearness of Red Hook. As soon as I arrived, I spied a piece by Thomas Beale and then the face of Adriana Atema. She played piano while I spent time with the work.
And now I’m headed uptown where Liars are playing the Met museum’s temple of Dendur. I’d wanted since January to find a ticket for that, especially after tomorrow’s show was moved from the masonic lodge to le Poisson Rouge — from seemingly nowhere, Erik Carter saw me on IM and said he had a spare.
Out the door. Living in New York. May is the best.
