Milwaukee Art Museum Art

The Milwaukee Art Museum Calatrava architecture is beautiful. It was built in downtown along Lake Michigan before we moved to DC thirteen years ago. While on a visit to the Midwest last week we caught up with a friend who is a docent at the museum, and she gave us a private tour followed by lunch. I don’t remember exactly when we last saw the artwork inside the museum. I do know I hadn’t started my blog until we lived in DC, and that’s why I take note of things about me more than I ever did before. I’m always looking to find subject matter to write about, and take photos of the subject at hand. So this was a great opportunity to capture the images of the many and varied artworks inside the museum. I tend to like the impressionist interpretations the most, or those whimsical in nature. Some of the contemporary stuff is unique but certainly not to my taste. I suppose the definition of Art is that it brings out some sort of reaction. What the docent tells us about a painting is oftentimes nothing I would have thought about. All in all it was a lovely day - I know what I like when I see it.
