Cézanne, Cinema, Surrealism and Spiritualism at MoMA

The special viewing of Cézanne’s drawings were inspiring to see: that he practiced drawing sculptures from all different angles, his line work was electrifying and with a vibrational quality. One could not help but think about his emphasis of a multi-point perspective of two eyeballs looking at one object.

Other galleries in the permanent MoMA collection were equally intriguing, The way video was integrated onto the bare walls of the gallery. I just loved how they designed the space with these flickering moving images… separated from the eye-line of the static images, but placed in a way to balance.

Lastly, I found the Surrealist and Spiritualist areas to be more fleshed out than previous years, perhaps tying together the post American Civil War and post WW1 eras with today’s tumultuous political social upheaval.
