#michtersmonday done at a #unicorn level last week in #nyc with my #michters family. We did a side by side tasting of the 2013 and 2016 #michterscelebration and it was a moment of #wow. A double WOW, one wow for we got to enjoy these amazing #rarewhiskey side by side and enjoy the depth and flavor each has, and the second WOW was part #holyshit we are doing this with a WOW wow wow 🥰. I got the 2013 by just a hair, a tiny, tiny hair, they are both #worksofart in liquid, and a true testament to the high, high quality #whiskey that Michters delivers each and every time because it’s all about quality to them. Not sure what we can do top this #whiskeyexperience my friends. Happy Michters Monday everyone I hope you are drinking some michters today. #mondaymotivation #lifeisgood #thenomadnyc #thebestthingieverdid @michterswhiskey @michtersmasterofmaturation @michtersmasterdistiller . . . . . . #whiskeylover #whiskeylife #michterswhiskey #luxury #michtersrye #picoftheday #michtersbourbon #instalike #michterssourmash #michtersman #topshelf #luxurylifestyle #newyorkcity (at NoMad NY) https://www.instagram.com/p/B35FxvyDDSD/?igshid=nzd27el5xnic
Museum Quality Decks by Edward Leida
The Life and Death of Works of Art / Available at www.draw-down.com / A collection of stories and theoretical texts focused on the modalities of existence of #artworks, starting with a collection of items that used to be works of art but no longer are. This book explores the various material and perceptible continuities linked to the definition of #aworkofart — More generally it raises a number of issues on the #ontology of the work of art: how does a work of art inscribe itself in the material continuity of the object that contains it and surpasses it? How does the lifespan of a work of art within its object then surpass a human being's lifespan? Which reasons and which practices govern the #conservation and #preservation of an artifact? The Life and Death of #WorksofArt starts where the artworks cease to be, to find interest in what it becomes. The artist and restorer's mutually overlapping figures, technological chimeras, biological entities substituted inside the work of art for preservation purposes, museum-targeted reconstitutions, hyper restoration, physically or chemically reconfigured artworks—these are all examples making up the landscape of this book.

Realism is a challenge. I respect it.
