Untitled c.1963 by Martin Ramirez
There are two small shows in NYC right now that I would recommend, if you haven't seen them. Martin Ramirez at the
American Folk Art Museum.
Saul Steinberg (1914–1999)
Untitled (Pineapple), ca. 1970, Three Liberties, 1949–51, Woman in Tub, 1949, Mask, 1961 (detail)
And Saul Steinberg at the
Pierpont Morgan Library (Madison btwn 36th and 37th). We had to rush through this, too much time over a wonderful lunch in the Library's excellent restaurant. The works are so fresh and fun, it's hard to believe the dates attributed to the work are real.
