New ideas for exploring are on Substack, my monthly roundup of art and adventures, books and screens and pods and more. We had an excellent Subscriber outing lacma to visit Eileen Cowin’s exhibit and also visited the new Geffen Galleries. I also enjoyed learning about textile artist Reiko Sudo’s practice (she made the stainless steel curtains in the new building). I loved a new short book called “Etna” and am excited about fall titles from Barbara Kingsolver and Min Jin Lee. Also, pointed to several resources to help you get up to speed on the current panic about AI. I hope you take a look!
