Modern art can be really cool or really weird.
We had a hard time getting to this museum and were turned away from the Kandinsky exhibit (we have museum passes and you need another 14euro ticket for this exhibit). So as we wandered through the main collection, i kept trying to connect with the pictures. Then i ran into this piece by Simon Hantai, who i've never heard of and just had to stand and stare for a while. Apparently he made it by wadding up the canvas, pre-stretched, and adding paint blind. Trying to remove the subjectivity of the artist. I'm not sure what i like other than the use of negative space, but i stared at it for a while.
My only good picture of the day was this one taken from the 4th floor of this museum.
