SAVE THE DATE MAY 1, 2015 Inaugural Exhibition May 1, 2015– When the Whitney Museum’s new Renzo Piano-designed home on Gansevoort Street opens its doors on May 1, 2015, the inaugural installation will be the largest and most comprehensive display to date of the Whitney’s unparalleled permanent collection of 20th and 21st century American art. This ambitious display will offer new perspectives on art in the United States since 1900, following the Whitney’s in-depth analysis of its collection of more than 21,000 works, an initiative that has been underway since 2012. The opening presentation will fill over 60,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor exhibition space, utilizing all galleries in the building, and it will celebrate the Whitney’s extraordinary new home and the richness of American art.

Those in need of a little inspiration for their holiday correspondence this year would do well to head to Poets House, the nearly 30-year-old poetry hub in Battery Park City, where the poet Kevin Young and the doctoral candidate Lisa Chinn have curated a new exhibition, “Winter Wedding: Holiday Cards by Poets.” The show, which draws mainly from the Raymond Danowski Poetry Library at Emory University, features holiday cards, valentines, rare editions and more from poets including Langston Hughes, Robert Creeley, Seamus Heaney and Sylvia Plath (and Miss Flannery O’Connor’s calling card, to boot, printed in an appropriately Gothic font). Glimpse a few highlights from the show above — we’re especially fond of Alice Notley’s peculiar collage postcard, which combines a bashful flamingo, a cactus postage stamp and a reminder: “It is never too late to start a new way of thinking.” “Winter Wedding: Holiday Cards by Poets” is on view at Poets Ho

Communiqué commun de l’ensemble des groupes du Conseil municipal de la  Ville d'Hyères les Palmiers  (Jacques POLITI, Jean-Pierre GIRAN, Patrick COLLET et William SEEMULLER) : Au moment où un crime odieux vient d’être perpétré à Paris dans les locaux de Charlie Hebdo, nous tenons à exprimer aux familles des victimes notre immense peine et notre totale solidarité. Des personnes sont mortes atteintes par les balles de fous extrémistes. Mais au-delà de ces victimes, c’est la liber té d’expression qui était visée.
