Wasn\u2019t the Super Bowl fun? I like football because it\u2019s so American and so politically incorrect. But what\u2019s happened to the cheerleaders? In the old days they were pretty, bouncy, sexy girls. Now, they look as if they take gymnastics very seriously.<\/p>\n

I chose a day when the temperature hovered around eleven degrees to go to the Barbara Mathes Gallery to see Rakuko Naito\u2019s paper work.The gallery is a townhouse that has the secure features of a vault, It also has the hushed, immaculate, tony atmosphere that makes you lower your voice. Then on to the Lauder Cubism exhibit at the Met. Picasso, Braque, Gris. L\u00e9ger are artists in the collection. Cubism grabbed me as a child when I\u2019d wander through MOMA and stand in front of Picasso\u2019s Three Musicians.<\/p>\n

NYCB\u2019s Glass Pieces with music by Philip Glass and choreography by Jerome Robbins was the best piece of an afternoon performance. My head was still filled with the images of cubism so I imagined I saw it in Glass Pieces. This is the first time I\u2019ve appreciated Philip Glass. Choreography complements his music.<\/p>\n
