new museum of contemporary art
i went to the new museum of contemporary art one mild afternoon when i needed a walk. this museum is at a place were it is shorter for me to walk there than take any form of public transportation so off i went.
the museum is in a brand new building. it just opened in early december, i believe. it looks like a bunch of boxes balancing on top of each other. it's very industrial feeling in the museum, but...i thought the way the museum looked was the coolest thing about the museum (sort of my feelings on the guggenheim as well).
the art...well some of it was interesting to look at like the mattress completely covered in buttons. my favorite piece were a stack of chairs in an arch about 10 feet high. that was pretty much only interesting to me because i (as an engineer) wanted to figure out how they got them in the arch without them falling down.
so, my advice, look at the museum from the outside, come inside, look around on the first floor and do not pay to go upstairs...
