Cocktails with a Curator: Guardi's “Regatta in Venice" and "View of Cannaregio Canal in Venice”

In this week’s episode of “Cocktails with a Curator,” set a course for 18th-century Venice as Deputy Director and Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator Xavier F. Salomon discusses a pair of “vedute” (views) by Francesco Guardi. Displayed on the third floor of Frick Madison alongside works by Tiepolo and Rosalba Carriera, Guardi’s pictures present a lively city with color-coordinated boatmen, laundry hanging from balconies, and liveried attendants greeting dignitaries. This week’s complementary cocktail is the Sgroppino, a Venetian refreshment dating to the 16th century. To view this painting in detail, please visit our website: https://www.frick.org/guardivenice

President Biden Loves Amtrak

It’s no secret that I love Amtrak. It’s one of the reasons I’m excited about the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal, which includes the largest investment in passenger rail since Amtrak’s founding.

Happy Birthday Rachmaninov

🎹 «La musica è una calma notte di luna, un frusciare estivo di foglie, uno scampanio lontano la sera, nasce solo dal cuore e si rivolge al cuore. È amore». Nasceva oggi nel 1873 Sergej Rachmaninov. Un momento del preludio n. 6 dall'Op.23, suona Valentina Lisitsa 🎹 pic.twitter.com/T4IBkzoowd

With Freedom Comes Responsibility - Get Vaccinated Now!

"This is not about politics, this is about life and death... with freedom comes responsibility." -President Biden, at the White House, encouraging Americans to get vaccinated.

Pres. Biden: "So I say to all those who are unvaccinated: Please, please get vaccinated. And to the rest of America, this is no time to be despondent or let our guard down. We just need to finish the job with science, with facts, with the truth." pic.twitter.com/gZb2yirZfJ

— MSNBC (@MSNBC) July 29, 2021

 

We will not be going back into lockdowns. Why? Because we now have the tools to put this virus behind us. The science says the vaccines work – including against the Delta variant. We urge Americans to get vaccinated.

Jersey Rain In New Online Collection

 

Gregg Chadwick

Jersey Rain

30"x40"oil on linen 2016-2021

Honored that "Jersey Rain" is included in the Inspired by Edward Hopper collection curated by Erin Remington - Assistant Curator at Saatchi Art.

American artist Edward Hopper created striking images of everyday life imbued with an understated force and beauty. Often my artwork honors Hopper's use of light and cinematic drama.


More on "Jersey Rain" below:

"What's your exit?"

I remember my Grandma giggling one morning when I spread mustard on my bread instead of butter because of a billboard I saw along the New Jersey Turnpike that depicted buttered bread with such a mustardy yellow that I thought it had to be a French's condiment ad. The New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway run the length of the state and at first meeting folks from Jersey often ask, "What's your exit?" My Grandma and Grandpa Desch lived off of Exit 136 in Garwood, New Jersey. When we drove there from Exit 148 in Glen Ridge we would often detour through Irvington to grab an Italian hotdog or sausage at Jimmy Buff's. Once my dad fresh from a Marine Corps event strode into the hotdog stand in his dress blues. My painting Jersey Rain was inspired by these family memories.
