The city that merges the medieval, Austrian, Soviet, and fairy tales’ spirit. Spiced up with a contemporary lifestyle.

The gracious and careless period of the year has finished… We all came back kissed by the sun (some of us having darker skin while others having freckles…), full of new ideas and inspirations for the new season. Ready to begin a more concentrated and less distracting period of the year – the autumn. For some of us it is the time of new beginnings and for the others it is the time of rewards – like the harvest time for the farmers. I hope for all it is a new season of new joy.

I was lucky enough to catch this informative and concise exhibition at the British Library in London on its last day of display. Its core theme is the Avant-Garde Movement in European print. The dates ascribed by the curator (Chris Michaelides) for this movement are 1900s to 1937s, which spans the generic existence of Avant-Garde.

Once you get exhausted from the work life and fast rhythm of the city, I highly recommend strolling down to the West Village – towards the Hudson River Park. Especially on the weekends, once the city gets silent and is not that crowded – you can start observing the still LIFE -

Walking from East Village on the 10th street (or anywhere below towards the south) as long as you go west and look towards the sky you can observe the colorful scenery -
