The Guggenheim has a wonderful exhibit on Giacometti filling its entire spiral, and includes a film of Giacometti being interviewed as he sculpts.  A wonderful exhibit.  In one of the two galleries off the spiral is a Brancusi exhibit.  this is looking into it from the spiral.

 

BTW:  the Guggenheim finally allows photography anywhere above the lobby.

Imagine if you could make a Brancusi the subject of every photograph you take: heaven, Stuart.

 

You probably already know about it but the Nasher Sculpture Garden in Dallas has the most remarkable collection of modern sculpture I've ever seen. Brancusi, Giacometti, Dubuffet, Ernst, Arp, Judd, Johns, Oldenburg, Segal, Serra . . . it is a special place and must be on your itenerary if you've not already been there. Magnificent.

Michael & Herman - Thank you.

 

Allan - thank you, and it's tempting.  next time we're in Dallas.

 

Wally - You identified it, part of their permanent collection.  Also in that room was his Seal, my favorite.  No photos there this time since I've shot them in the past.

Thnx for posting & tempting us.  I saw the movie w/Jeffrey Rush as Giacometti in "Final Portrait". ... & loved it. I was hoping to see more of his sculptures but his painting of James Lord was really exceptional. With the exhibition closing by Sept 12th wish I could visit. 

              Especially now that u pointed out @ relaxed photography rules. I imagine no tripod (understandable) but photography everywhere in the museum. Now I can go to the upper level to get closer to the skylight.
