Move (The Renaissance)

train station hilarity


met up with folks at the central station so we could go to this:
Louisiana Art Museum

The Louisiana Museum of Modern Art is an art museum located directly on the shore of the Øresund in Humlebæk 35 kilometers north of Copenhagen, Denmark. It has a wide range of modern art paintings, sculptures and videos dating from World War II up to now, including works by artists such as Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Anselm Kiefer, Alberto Giacometti, Pablo Picasso, Yves Klein, Robert Rauschenberg and Asger Jorn. The videos are often housed in room settings where the viewer is made to feel part of the scene being portrayed. Perched above the sea, there is a sculpture garden between the museum's two wings with works by artists including Henry Moore, Alexander Calder, and Jean Arp.

The museum is included in the Patricia Schultz book 1,000 Places to See Before You Die.

this is ironic because it was FULL of old people.

the main exhibition was Max Ernst
Max Ernst (2 April 1891 – 1 April 1976) was a German painter, sculptor, graphic artist, and poet. A prolific artist, Ernst is considered to be one of the primary pioneers of the Dada movement and Surrealism.
