Top of THE MET!

Fairfield County "It!"
had a fabulous time on the rooftop of
THE MET
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
in NYC!

The Theater of Disappearance
Picture

​As you step out onto the roof you enter what appears to be
​the aftermath of a very over the top party!

​Argentinian artist Adrián Villar Rojas has transformed the Cantor Roof with an intricate site-specific installation that uses the Museum itself as its raw material. Featuring detailed replicas of nearly 100 objects from The Met collection, The Theater of Disappearance encompasses thousands of years of artistic production over several continents and cultures, and fuses them with facsimiles of contemporary human figures as well as furniture, animals, cutlery, and food. Each object—whether a 1,000-year-old decorative plate or a human hand—is rendered in the same black or white material and coated in a thin layer of dust.
The artist has reconfigured the environment of the Cantor Roof by adding a new pergola, a grand tiled floor, a bar, public benches and augmented planting throughout the space. The Met's own alphabet has even been incorporated into the graphic identity of the project. To realize this extensive work, the artist immersed himself in the Museum and its staff for many months, holding conversations with the curators, conservators, managers, and technicians across every department who contributed to the realization of this installation.

​THE MET


The artist's combination of classic art pieces
placed into another reality was very interesting.
​
I tried to determine where each sculpture used in the exhibit was
located inside the museum. 
That will take another visit to begin to solve.

​I love the spectacular view of Central Park and the Manhattan Skyline!

Afterward we visited Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh and Rodin before heading off to Jean Georges restaurant "The Mark"!

​Lunch was delicious and service perfect!

Now off to Bergdorf Goodman for more NYC sunny Sunday fun!
