Day 35, December 17, 2015: But Is It Art?

Today wew visited the Pompedeu Museum of Modern Art.  It waas built in the 1970s  and is noted for having its utilities eposed in colored pipes on the exteriior of the building.  The views from the top floor are great, but it was too hazy for good photos.

Good art is always controversial (just ask Van Gogh).  As a contemporary viewer \I just have to ask the obvious question:

"Is it art?"

I'll let you decide for yourself.

Line of balls, the largest is a driveable orange.  Some balls were lit up from inside.


 Another view.

                                    

Another series.  Seems like modern art has to be huge!  The entire three part series took up a 1600 square foot room.  That is the size of a decent sized house!




Three views of the same piece.




Paintings by some famous modern artists.  Can you name them?





So, is it art?
