Liz Larner’s 2 as 3 & Some Too was my 2nd favorite piece from her solo show. Sagging/melting cubes of chartreuse & blue. #MOCA

Liz Larner, 2 as 3 and Some, Too, 1997-8, mulberry paper, steel and watercolor, 112 x 137 x 95 inches
Very lovely tiny gelatin-silver prints from Judy Fiskin. Especially the series of apartment building facades from 1982. #MOCA

The Kiki Smith is perfectly positioned under a skylight causing some of the glass pieces to glow. #MOCA

I kinda like that Koons’ 3 puppies are staring adoringly at Lari Pittman’s An American Place. #MOCA

Fred Tomaselli’s Hang Over is pure joy. A tree full of garlands of pills, butterflies, flowers, birds, lips, eyes, leaves, hands, etc. #MOCA

Always amazed at Llyn Foulkes, Pop every time I see it. I like the installation in a totally black room with audio. #MOCA

I’m not really feeling Jason Rhoades yellow scattertrash or David Altmejd’s pine tree branches & crystals. Mess without meaning. #MOCA
