“You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you nothing back, no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to show on walls and maybe hang in museums, no poems to be printed and sold, nothing but that single fleeting moment when you feel alive.”
Merce Cunningham
We've been looking through our blog archives to brighten up a long Monday, and this fantastic article, titled "Looking for the Victorian Eye in London’s Medical Museums", by @kristin_hussey certainly is an eyeful! #victorian #medicine https://t.co/PQezUVF4oe
Ahhhh... Sometimes you get to sit in the El Greco gallery @ngadc all by yourself. Detail, Laocoön, ca. 1610-1614. #ITweetMuseums #ElGreco #myngadc
A fave gallery in the new presentation of @thejewishmuseum's permanent collection is this selection of the "Underwood #Stereograph Travel System." 3D glimpses of wondrous places resonate w/ me as a universal pining for the "someplace else." #ITweetMuseums #JewishMuseumCollection

Proofing #Egyptology piece for @MuseumsAssoc on new #ancientEgypt gallery @BoltonLMS #museums & learning that Thutmose III – literally 'Thoth is born' (ibis headed scribe to gods) – was the Egyptian equivalent to Napoleon and his empire building tendencies. Fascinating @hollimond
The HAUM is probably my favorite museum in Germany. A pleasant, relaxed atmosphere, none of the humiliating security measures that ruin other museums, and a great collection. And the BM painting (here, more details), which never ceases to amaze me.

Even without reading the exhibition label, it's clear from the eyes alone that this is a sketch of a mesmerizing psychic. #Modigliani, Table-turning, or Portrait of a Medium, ca. 1906. #ModiglianiUnmasked #ITweetMuseums 🌀🌀
...it's not all drawings though. Many of the paintings are on loan from private collections, so this exhibition is a unique opportunity to experience them. I was immediately captivated by the jovial mug of Docteur Devaraigne, 1917. #ModiglianiUnmasked #ITweetMuseums
@TheJewishMuseum This drawing-focused exhibition gives you a great opportunity to see an artist, early in his career, working through different ways of sketching facial details, like the animated #moustache of Paul Alexandre (all 1909). #ModiglianiUnmasked #ITweetMuseums
