Les Ballet Des Failes...

Wednesday night was the second night of the Faile nights at the New York Ballet.

Just like the last time, there was lots of amazing new pieces of work on show - some big mosaic-type pieces made up lots of blocks and smaller canvases...

 As well as these pieces, there were some amazing carved wooden totems too...

There were about 20 of them in all, each with hand carved and painted designs wrapping round and on the top... they were so detailed and brilliantly coloured...


 They were amazing!

They didn't fill the room in the same way as the Tower last time, but they were so impressive in a completely different way... perhaps the most impressive part was the Lionel Richie carving!

Also like last time, everyone with a ticket got a wooden block that was part of a larger piece of art. This time I was able to get one of the Faile duo to sign my block...

I'm not really sure if I prefered the big tower at the first Faile Ballet event, or these totems... they were both great. I wonder which artist the NYC Ballet will team up with next?
