A “Why?” from a viewer at the K.C. Museum
I enjoy viewing sculptures, paintings and anything else that has to do with art. However, every once in awhile, I am left scratching my head–but doing it in a very cool manner so that others with hipster skinny ties and black horn rimmed sunglasses don’t whisper to their equally hip girlfriend, “She doesn’t get it, does she?”.
I was ecstatic when my brother asked me to join him at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City.
We enjoyed the grandness of the museum…
…the restaurant which we wanted to partake of, but ran out of time….
…and the chinese temple that’s been displayed for over 80 years.
We saw the new, the not so new and the ancient. I enjoyed every sculpture, painting and “interpretation” of life. When it comes to art, I often don’t ask “why”.
Heck, I know I sometimes can’t answer the “why” behind my own art.
But, seriously-Why?
i…..don’t….know….. why?! it just seems so……..unnecessary? yes, I think that is the right word.
the upper portion seems almost covered ove, (or at least a bit more blurred at the edges?). but that lower part, WOW, the artist really got carried away, huh? I am scratching my head…. in the most puzzled manner……..right out in plain view.
Probably to show the sculptor’s skill, at least that is why it is on one foot, and then goes perpendicular. Why it has to be a nut shot is beyond me.
Also it is a shame you missed the restaurant, it is seriously AH.MA.ZING. Which is kind of weird that it should be so good.
