free art

across the road from Yoshio Taniguchi's Museum of Modern Art in New York is the Museum of Modern Art store, and just a little further along is a bookshop selling coffee table books relating to modern art and design - but it is not affiliated to the museum. a little further along, is another art library, looking more like a public library in australia. a little run down and passed by by the socialites heading to the MoMA for an opening of a exhibition of modern art they dont even begin to understand. if only they ducked inside for a minute, they might have some idea.
in the window, there are paper sculptures created by primary kids in new york. these kids are 8-12 years old, and have spent hours making these tiny perfect origami structures.
in some ways, their innocent art was more appealing than the huge confronting walls inside the museum, and cheaper - no $20 entry fee.
