On Sunday, the last day of the installation, I finally went to see Ernesto Neto's antropodino at the Park Avenue Armory. I wish I had gone sooner as it was pretty wonderful and smelled great! The blobs hanging from the ceiling are filled with spices. Those are ground cloves in the second photo and turmeric in the third.
The armory itself only recently opened as an art space. It was completed in 1881 and includes room interiors by Louis Comfort Tiffany, Stanford White and the Herter Brothers. I need to return as the rooms are dimly lit and my pictures of them only dimly in focus.
Whoa, this is cool.
