Last Wednesday was a bit like today...drizzly..a day where its easy to stay inside and draw. But ART PARIS was opening that night.
Grand Palais is always a treat to visit no matter how stay-at-home you feel.
Such a fantastic, airy space. Everybody was there. Long, long lines waiting to get. Plenty of pkids!
So much color. Always uplifting.
More color. Give me color and I'm there.
A plastic bottle guy montage.
Wall of eyes, round objects.
A gallery of Corbusier watercolor drawings.
What Parisians are wearing is half of the show.

Champagne chariots stratigically placed.

A 'thank you' note from Swiss kinetic artist Jean Tinguely painted on corrugated cardboard to a brazilian client. Hence forth PBers all thank you notes will be on cardboard...or something.
Loved these loose drawings. They look like they were drawn with a branch. I felt like I paint with a pin.
Armin's tubes of yellow ochre encased in plexiglass for posterity.
More color. Bold, splashy paintings from a Frankfurt gallery, Die Galerie.
On the way home in the metro station - Marimekko's bold, slpashy prints at Uniglo right now. I got the one the one on the left. The ISLE OF DOGS poster could have been in the show. 
Next year I won't hesitate to go to ART PARIS. No way.
