Happy Thanksgiving Americans!

I hope you spend/spent a peaceful Thanksgiving. I'm off to Austria to help my mother for her painting exhibition and then to Hungary to visit my family. I'm not sure I'll be able to post from there, so have a good week everyone!

Remember last summer.

Puerto Rico? No, Brooklyn, NY.

Come monday night.

Les feuilles mortes.

I always found fascinating the colouring process of the autumn leaves.
These are all from the same tree and picked the same day.

Note the tiles in my parents' house.
Amazing right?!
It is originals from -maybe- a hundred years ago ...

First Mushroom picking.

It was a gorgeous day, but we didn't get any luck. Just at the end we found some "pissacan", but they are not the best...

Nagymama.

Just stumbled upon that song of Lana del Rey, made me think of my grand-mother. She is the wisest person I know. An artist. Always listening, always saying the right thing. She is 85 and still works on a new book. She wrote lots of them, about weaving, natural dye, minerals... My cousin Dóra wrote an article about them here.

Little story: she never smoke in her whole life, but one cigarette and there is a photo of it.

Where you walk.

I've got something for pavements, for what you can find on the sidewalks.

Things, images, messages...

Vans at the Met.

Coney Island.

Still Williamsburg.

Somewhere in SoHo.

Bonjour monday!

Let's start this week with a smile, alright?! Sometimes there's no other way to feel better, than smile for yourself, to others and let it flow...

Bonne journée! x.

skate ny.

Same one?

Missing New York. I mean, my memories of New York.

How cool would you look on a skateboard?!

Diane Arbus.Paris.

There is currently a Diane Arbus exhibition at the Jeu de Paume in Paris on my wish-to-do-list.

Have a nice week-end and maybe some of you in Paris can go and see it!

Ladies' Empire.

Boardwalk Empire Season 2 confirms the influence of women in the series. They are not only gorgeous but intelligent and strong, being the mother-Gretchen Mol, the wife- Aleksa Palladino, the lover- Kelly Macdonald or the mistress- Paz de la Huerta...

All the boys and the girls...

Tonight was my friend Elena's last "Bric-à-Brac" show on Radio fabrik.
This was the last song.
God, Françoise Hardy was so beautiful and still is!

It's bit pathetic, but I kind of recognize myself in the lyrics...

Manhattan in Brooklyn.

On 9/11/11, after spending the afternoon at Ground zero, we didn't feel like going out to party. We ate in Chinatown and headed to the Brooklyn Academy of Music for a movie. When we arrived there, we found out that there was a free screening of Woody Allen's Manhattan. We decided to go for it. What an original way to pay hommage to the City and its People. It was moving, beautiful and funny too. Surely an other unforgettable moment we spent in New York...

Al and Robert...

Just finished to watch the Godfather trilogy. I know it's cliché like hell, but I always had a massive crush for (on?) Al Pacino and Robert de Niro.

Still.

Fulang-Chang and I. Frida Kahlo. MoMA. NYC. Sept 2011.

Still.
Standing still in front of the painting.
Just my mind wandering away.
Away to Mexico.
But it's sadness in her eyes.
Sadness and pride.
Love.

Splash!

It's awfully raining here in South of France, but it doesn't make me want to sing... I wish I was enthusiastic like Gene Kelly :)

Message.

Dear Albee, and Max, and Sarah and Jimmy, it feels weird without you too.x.love.
