Art Book Fair

The Autumn sky was really clear and high. With amazing fresh weather and feeling, we arrived PS1 Art Book Fair. On the front of the entrance, there were a lot of unique and stylish people. They were looks like art students or artist. Finally the opening time was came and we entered. PS1 was renewed old school. Unlike simple and modern interior of entry, inside building looked like antique and graceful. At the first we could meet huge dorm which displayed a lot of small books. But there was too hot and crowded with curious bystanders so I skipped there. 

Main Exhibitions

The old class rooms appreciated by each exhibition sections. From 1st floor to 3rd floors there were varied sort of topics sections and exhibitions.  There were a lot of publisher and exhibitors. They installed their art works and art books. By the way everything was English and also Art books have connotative titles so I could not easily find my taste book. So I was just looking around there.

My Favorite - Jonas Delaborde

While skimming on 1st floor, I found interesting section. They looked just general section however they had more pretty and small books in there. So I observed each books and pages. Especially a small and colorful book attracted my sight. That book's each pages were never boring. Also the painting looked like marker painting. Actually I have difficulties from using marker so that painting was really interesting to me. 

This book is the French Artist Jonas Delaborde's Art book. In this, there are 6 full images of her art works and all art works draw by maker. This book is the first editions. His work has interesting color matching which attract me. Each images look like abstract landscape but not realistic.  

Brooklyn Bridge

  When my first class off day, I thought something special plan for my meaningful spare time. I was plan to watching sunrise on the Brooklyn Bridge with My classmate Asako. To see the sunrise, we have to depart at 5:30 at least. When we departed, out side was still dark. We took the subway.  At 6:20 we arrived High station. On the way to the Brooklyn Bridge there are a group of people who go to the bridge. 

When we finally arrived the Brooklyn Bridge, there were a lot of people. Some of people were jogging or road a bicycle. Some of couple were spending romantic time. It was very beautiful scenery. However sadly sun was already risen. So we couldn’t saw the sunrise but still beautiful. When we walked the bridge I found surprise thing. It is that the bridge’s floor made by wood. I could believe that. How it can be still exist strongly? 

The Brooklyn Bridge is the oldest Bridge in the New York. The bridge’s a lot of steel cables gave me grandiosity feeling. This bridge was primally designed with steel cable. So this is called by one of the best achievement in mechanical engineering field. Also, this bridge have famous and sad story. This is about a person who build this bridge. His name is John Augustus Roebling. He had designed this when a ferry he aboard had trapped in the ice. However, before to start to build the bridge he accidentally had died. So, His sun had finished to build. On the bridge, I was sentimentalized momently because of this story. To this day the Brooklyn bridge is still loved by many people. We walked the end of the bridge. While walked we took a lot of pictures. May be some of these pictures I will use this for my artwork. This is the first my real adventure in New York city. It was really exciting experience and also healing time. Sometimes I would go there again.
