Inside MOCA Director Jeffrey Deitch’s New LA Home
Jeffrey Deitch gives us a tour of his new LA crib & a bit of insight into why he decided to take the gig @ MOCA to be the new director of the museum.
I’ve always admired Mr. Deitch’s point of view on art. He clearly sees the shift that art has created within popular culture. Depending on who you talk to w/in the art world, you will get varying opinions about his approach. I for 1 am excited about the retrospective on the late Dennis Hopper & the exhibition on graffiti and street art that he is organizing. It will be fun to watch the cultural landscape w/in the art world continue to evolve. -!YG
YG Spends a Day @ The MET
Yesterday my OG Tony Johnson, myself and his colleagues were invited by some trustees @ the MET to lunch and a tour of the permanent collection. Lunch was amazing & the tour was very insightful. I have a new found respect for Monet & Van Gogh’s artistic contributions to art.
After the formalities, I snuck off to check out the new John Baldessari retrospective. I was truly delighted by the body of work presented by such an iconic conceptual artist. Make sure you check out Baldessari’s exhibition… It will be on view until Jan and would make a great day trip for tourists visiting NYC around the holidays. -!YG
