Before Covid, we had a habit of daytripping through the Hill Country and around Austin. But somehow, after the worst of the pandemic had passed, we never got back in the habit.
Yesterday we finally got ourselves in gear and headed to the Anni Albers exhibit at the Blanton Museum. Par for the course, my pictures don’t do the pieces justice, but here’s some of what made it onto my camera …
The exhibit was far more about Anni Albers’ works on paper, but just seeing her loom was worth the price of admission.
We also indulged by eating out at Jack Allen’s Kitchen, where I had grilled ruby trout filet on a bed of rice, corn, and spinach leaves, topped with salsa and apple walnut slaw. Incredible. And since we always share by passing each other small plates, I also got to sample JAK’s inimitable enchiladas.
Today I’m starting to read about color in Josef Albers’ Interaction of Color, which reads like a series of lesson plans …
and getting ready to add the next strip of patches to the table cloth …
all while contemplating where we might go next week … maybe this?
