Today is the day before we leave lovely Lyon. The 11th graders at the kids' school organized a fun activity day for the rest of the school with a super hero theme. Here is Harper as Super Snow White and Guthrie as a Super Viking Spiderman - in the morning, 7am, before leaving for school...
Yesterday Guthrie tried on his borrowed costume over his clothes.....
Here is Guthrie with his best friend here in Lyon, Jacob Hammers, in Jacob's cool + modern apartment with a funny handpainted wallpaper and an amazing view of all of Lyon......
Harper asked me to take this picture of her sparkly lit tummy......
Harper after school....
Yesterday after school, the kids and I went to URDLA to sign my etchings - all 80 of them (edition of 16 of 4 etchings + archives print for exhibition, 1 for the Bibliotheque National de France in Paris and artist's proofs). Here are more pictures of amazing URDLA, blotting paper:
Phone book weights used to dry prints....
Harper making a collage while Vincent packs up my prints in the background -
Guthrie exhausted....
URDLA fingerprints (for Amy White) -
Guthrie asked Harper to dance with him et voila!
Cloth on the URDLA wall.....
URDLA's broom handle -
Guthrie's scowl, bored, waiting, sick of me taking pictures.....
Here are the 4 Resistance etchings, photographed at an angle.....
Vincent, the best and nicest assistant one could hope for, counting and organizing my etchings URDLA keeps 8 and I keep 8 + proofs.
Vincent and me with the Assan Mati show behind us....
Cyrille, my friend and Director-Curator of URDLA, and me.....
Cathy Lutz, Matt and beautiful Lianna came to visit last weekend for 3 nights. We ate amazing food, including this yummy picnice dinner at our place. Here is the perfectly ripe St. Felicien cheese, a regional speciality -
And our favourite melon in Nyons olive oil, rock salt and pepper -
3 frommages: beaufort, goat in ash, and a briallat with truffles....
Tomorrow is the kids' last school day, a half day with an assembly. We will hand in our keys to the landlady, drive to the airport hotel, return the rent-a-car and fly out tomorrow morning at 8am. We will be at the White House June 29! I am verklempt...........au revoir Lyon, au revoir France, we will return! Thanks to you all who followed and appreciated this blog.
