Emily Jacir, Abandoned Property

ex libris commemorates the approximately thirty thousand books from Palestinian homes, libraries, and institutions that were looted by Israeli authorities in 1948. Six thousand of these books are kept and catalogued at the Jewish National and University Library in Jerusalem under the designation “A.P.” (Abandoned Property).(x)

 

I was in NYC for a few days in June and went to Chelsea to check out Chelsea Market and High Line Park. The park was great and I wish I took more photos, but the two above are the best two out of the ten or twelve mediocre photos I took whiel I was there. And I absolutely recommend going to Giovanni Rana at Chelsea Market because they have the best pasta I’ve ever had. It’s actually al dente, which surprised me at first because I’m so used to eating the overcooked stuff where I live (Incidentally, an amazing Italian restaurant just opened here with actual al dente pasta but Giovanni Rana has officially ruined me), but it was really good and pretty filling as well despite the seemingly small portions.
