(Seascapes, Gerhard Richter) A moment of under-synchronic experience: my birthday week in London will be 6 days too late for any showing of After Patience: Sebald and later still for the Gerhard Richter exhibition at the Tate—and a talk on Gaspar Dughet’s Ideal Landscape at the Wallace Collection. Womp, womp, womp.  What I will be doing: going to the German Romantic prints and drawings exhibition at the British Museum.  Collecting. (Postcards, reproductions, books, business cards, receipts, photographs.)  Finally reading books (Melville, Ballard, Walser on my list- suggestions welcome!) Drinking a shit ton of coffee.  (Also: Intensely wanting to live in London, despite the fact that I would not enjoy living there at all since I’d be broke all the time (more than usual).)
