Corcoran Closing End of September 2014

The Corcoran Gallery of Art is closing for renovation. My favorite piece is Loop, which was created in 2000 by Jennifer Steinkamp and Jimmy Johnson to celebrate the museum's 46th Biennial Exhibition Media/Metaphor. It was created specifically for the museum's neoclassical-style rotunda (40 feet in diameter, 30 feet floor to ceiling). You must check it out; it is interesting and interactive--become part of the art by casting your shadow! (Vera did, but I couldn't snap a pic fast enough.)

I run by this beautiful building on 17th Street frequently--hope the renovation goes quick and does William Wilson Corcoran proud.
