Today was a rainy Friday. I had plenty of things I COULD do, but the High Museum of Art was calling me. Their exhibit, Fast Forward: Modern Moments 1913-2013, is ending later this month. I had to see it. I'm so glad I did. You can watch the highlights here in my little film, Getting Out.
Or read along...
These wonderful sculptures are new to me. I realize I haven't been here since the summer. Why have I waited so long?
The cafe is closed, but I love that light sculpture running along the far wall.
I see art I know...
art I love...
and art I've never seen before...
As I leave I notice the lonely cocktail lounge, locked up for the day. The sparkly bottles look beautiful against the white building and winter trees reflected in the glass.
It's a good day.
Wonderful post, Jenny! Thank you for sharing your day. The artwork is incredible.
ReplyDeleteIt is always such a treat to be among the greats!
DeleteSounds and looks like it was a great day, I love your little film too. But most of all, I love that last photo of the bottles and reflected trees. It's stunning!
ReplyDeleteI am heading to the art gallery tomorrow. There is a Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera show to see. Can't wait.
Have a great weekend my friend.
I loved that shot as well and thought of you when I took it. Your blog photos inspire me!
DeleteFrida and Diego are coming to Atlanta in February. I wonder if they are coming straight from Toronto? I CANNOT wait to see the exhibit. I love all that color and bold images.Enjoy!Can't wait to see your pics!
what a really nice way to get out and spend a day Jenny! I bet when you got back you had lots of art ideas floating in your head :) LOVE the photo of the bottles-really FAB!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and textures. Whose sculpture, pretty cool metal (at least I think metal) works. xox
ReplyDeleteReally enjoyed seeing your images.. The winter trees look so beautiful and oddly appealing while it is so hot here!
