What a week it’s been for Amanda Gorman! This past Monday, Gorman signed a contract with IMG Models and will be joining the rank of iconic faces such as Alek We...k, Aweng Chuol and Chanel Iman. The NFL announced that Amanda will now be reciting an original poem at Super Bowl LV, making this the first time that poetry has ever been performed at a Super Bowl! Sis is definitely not new to been breaking barriers but her presence and authenticity reminds us of the importance of representation and allowing us the space to show up as ourselves because when we show up, we show OUT !

Look closely at this abstract Kandinsky painting. Can you spot the ships hidden throughout? I really enjoy this dip into abstraction. In the painting, there... are hints of ships with masts and cannons an idea of a battle at sea with splashes of blue waves. If I look long enough, I can imagine the feeling of ocean air and sharp wind. When the National Gallery’s East Building reopened in 2016 after major renovations and reinstallation of the collection, I began giving informal tours through the building. This painting hangs near the beginning of an incredible chronological journey through the National Gallery of Art’s collection of modern and contemporary art.
