Zette says "Don't pass this up."



Zette says "Don't pass this up."

At the Whitney Museum, Alexander Calder: The Paris Years
(Les Années Folles, the crazy years, 1920s Paris.)

A must see if you are in NYC or jetting there this winter. The Alexander Calder in Paris Exhibit at The Whitney, is a cloud-9 walk through a blissful,shimmering universe of visual wizardry. From Calder, the cool one, it’s all there -- open-wire caricature portraits, yes, the chic and wickedly divine Josephine Baker is one of them, a bestiary of wire animals and the over-the-top brilliant minature circus. Take it in, then go home and decant a bottle of Zette rouge,and pretend you’re off to see Josephine perform the danse sauvage at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees. Fun, fun, fun.

P.S. Check out this video from the exhibition:
