While we were the the Dance Summit in New York earlier this month, we had the opportunity to see Le Déjeuner sur l'Herbe: Les Trois Femmes Noire. This sparkling 10-by 24 foot painting by artist, Mickalene Thomas, adorns the window of the MoMA on 53rd street. The artwork is layers of material, lacquer, rhinestone and paint. Thomas explains, "It symbolizes a change, acceptance and new beginnings."
This is an overall image of the mural.
