I heard about this museum of art but never been inside. Thanks for Bank of America I am able to visit this cool museum for free first Sat/Sun of every month for 2010. I guess if you come in after 5pm the museum is free anyways~ Well, I couldn’t take a lot of photos cuz 1. Some section doesn’t allow photos 2. 80% of 3^rd & 4^th floors are under construction. I guess since it’s free I shouldn’t complain about it right? ^_^~

In the 2^nd floor I saw whole section of Pablo Picasso’s work. I am sure everyone knows who Pablo Picasso. If not, here is a link about this famous artist! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pablo_Picasso

I am glad I don’t need to fly to Spain to see Picasso’s painting! I am glad I came here today~~~ I guess the second floor is the where they display the modern art. Some of the art works makes me feel that… I can do it too! Mmn… maybe I should have majored in Art instead of Urban Regional Planning. Oh, there are tons of security guards around the 2^nd floor. One lady security guard seems to like me to death, she follows me everywhere I go. (I had camera on my neck, and no photos on the 2^nd floor)

3^rd floor are European Art, painting like I see in my Art History textbook. Most drawings are GOD. Jesus, or something related to Churches. To me it’s not really interesting… I had to memorized too many of them during Art History classes.

4^thfloor is where they display special exhibition works, again no photos. On the 4^th floor they also display some Asian work of art! Most of the artworks are from South Asia; Elephant God, God with 1,000 hands, God with 4 heads, etc… I am amazed on how much art pieces they took from Thailand… Hopefully Thailand still have some antique artwork at their own country now!

Cool museum but if I really have to pay for it to get it…I’ll think about it~

so many light poles display in front of the museum.

I love it! It's so cool! I think I can submit the photo on the right to AT&T for the bar commercial!!

Artworks from the 2nd and 3rd flood! Can you believe that a chair and a lamp next to it is an artwork too! I can do that too!

I think the 4th floor is the best... I recalled my trip back to Thailand when I was 5. hahaha Time flyes~
