WHERE WAS I? As usual, it's in one of the five boroughs. Anyone can play, but for ID purposes it's good to use a distinct handle when you post guesses in the comments section. And specificity counts for this one.

I'll start where I left off last week: Chelsea?

David Marc Fischer said...

So is Chelsea the new Queens?

Debbie, I was not in Chelsea.

at the podiatrist, in Brooklyn?

Myra, it looks like you and Debbie have both started off on the wrong foot.

Even though I started this off on the right foot.

Debbie's warmer, though.

Is it at The Met?

bellj, between you and Debbie, you might be on to something.

It looks like you were at the Lever House looking at the Virgin Mother on Park Ave bt 53 and 54th.

Well the Virgin Mother by Damien Hirst is the puzzle answer, but is it the foot as well?

David Marc Fischer said...

Well-played, Gary!

I'm so distracted by this Harry Potter thing that I can't write more at the moment. Please be patient, folks!

Okay, yes, it's The Virgin Mother by Damien Hirst, whose The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living--you know, the shark chunks in formaldehyde--can soon be seen at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The Virgin Mother, a kind of 33.75' cross-section of a pregnant woman, is located in the courtyard of the Lever House on Park Avenue. Go figure. You can see other images here and read mixed reactions to the sculpture here.
