One of my images has been chosen among the favorites at the Milwaukee Art Museum! Honored to be among these beautiful images.
"The Milwaukee Art Museum invited visitors to submit their personal photographs of the Calatrava-designed Museum addition, demonstrating how significantly the building has brought a sense of pride in, as well as international attention, to Milwaukee. These are some of our favorite images."
I love the front gallery of the Milwaukee Art Museum and always leave it till the end, because they always have something really cool in there. More of an experience rather than just art on the walls, like other areas of the building. Today it was Yue Minjun: Chinese Contemporary Warriors "hear no evil." They're pretty powerful. I just love it when I can get up close and personal with sculpture like these. MIngle. Contemplate. Admire.
As I wandered among the sculptures, I thought hmmm... That's a bit how I feel these days. Sometimes we get too wrapped up in our own shit to listen. Maybe it's time we open ourselves up. Do more than listen. Hear.
(27) from a distance :: Lots to choose from - I spent the day in Milwaukee at my favorite museum, the Milwaukee Art Museum. It's the 10 year anniversary of the Calatrava building and they have an exhibit going on thru the end of the year about the design process and construction. The scale models are sick! And it was super cool to see the different iterations of the design. I have photographed this place maybe four or five times, and just cannot get enough.
I wandered around the museum and then out along the lake front - there were a ton of boats on the water. It was the perfect day for sailing... a little windy. My hair was a bit of a nest by the time I got back to the car. Yikes!
Despite the wind, it was the most beautiful day. Sunny and warm. I love warm Fall days. The colors in the trees just seem so rich and full. Hope you had a beautiful day where ever you are!
