MOWA

Spent a wonderful day at the Museum of Wisconsin Art in West Bend. We drove over to see the Tom Uttech retrospective, "Into the Woods," which was even more spectacular than we anticipated. What we had not anticipated, was the outdoor sculpture and elegant landscaping that now surrounds the museum. 

I'll post a few more images later this week. Double click on this picture so you can better see "Legend of the White Snake," the permanent sculpture made of white PVC pipe by artist Jason S. Yi. The white sculpture against the white museum building is very dramatic and I'm guessing it is even more interesting when the scene is all covered with snow.

The sculpture is great. So is Mark's photograph. I love that your bag picks up the pattern of the windows. Even the stripes on the pavement follow the pattern.

That was no accident; Mark told me exactly where he wanted me to stand.

Interesting sculpture. In your black coat, you stand out beautifully again the building and the sculpture.

Oh yes, I was quite sure Mark planned it out well. Wasn't sure if you took that bag knowing ahead of time what a match it would be.

For some reason in Safari the Comments box is not showing up. It works in Firefox so it's a Safari problem but thought I'd share this discovery. Hopefully Apple will get it fixed soon.

It was quite an interesting piece. There is a photo of it lit at night on the MOWA website, something we are unlikely to see since it's almost two hours away. We got there when the museum opened, took a lunch break and came back again. Almost an eight hour day with all the driving; but the show we went to see was worth it.

Thanks for the message about the comments. I have not been able to see them at my end and the Typepad suggestions to fix this problem worked in the past but not this time. I can see and reply to comments on my iPad but not on my big computer which is where it is most comfortable to do those things. I have been ignoring this issue since people seem able to leave comments but I should see if I can't find a solution.

Can't wait to hear the rest of the story.

Oh, that sculpture is really awesome. I thought about going over for that presentation--wish I had. It was nice and warm today, and I got a hike in, so I'm glad about that.
