What the hand remembers: Resolute RGL at the United Nations | amNewYork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For some 3,000 years, an inheritance has passed from mother to daughter without a deed, a vault or written instruction. It travels through the hand: the angle of a needle, the discipline of counted stitches, the knowledge of which colors and motifs belong to a particular place. Such gifts endure because one woman leans toward another and says, in essence, remember. At the United Nations in New York last week, that inheritance appeared in an unexpected form: sneakers, sandals and glimpses of fort
Lee Krasner and Jackson Pollock at The Met (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One enters Krasner and Pollock: Past Continuous with Jackson Pollock already lodged in the cultural imagination. His poured filaments belong to modernism’s grammar; even those who have never stood before one recognize the ritual of the man circling a canvas. Somewhere along The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s beautifully calibrated procession, however, the equilibrium alters.

Dudamel opens the Philharmonic season (opens the original)
Read excerpt
New York knows how to dress remembrance. Sometimes it arrives in evening clothes, accompanied by caviar, champagne and the assurance of people accustomed to turning private devotion into public good.

Read excerpt
Before diplomacy took the microphone, Franz Liszt had already claimed the Guggenheim’s air. On Sept. 22, a pianist sent one of my favorite—and most deliciously controversial—composers curling through Frank Lloyd Wright’s rotunda with all the grandeur, seduction and barely governed extravagance Liszt understood so well. Statecraft rarely receives such a magnificent soundtrack. Perhaps it should more often. Liszt was Hungarian by birth, although his imagination belonged to Europe; Weimar became on
‘I’m in’: Darla Moore, John Legend and the beautiful audacity of The Shed | amNewYork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The most consequential words in an institution’s life are not always delivered from a stage. Sometimes they arrive before the building exists, while the dream still sounds unreasonable and success remains theoretical. When Dan Doctoroff described his vision for The Shed to Darla Moore, the formidable South Carolinian answered: “I’m in.” Frankly, what else would one expect from a woman introduced as somewhere between Kim Basinger and the Terminator? Swoon. I may have found my new shero. That act
