SIX WORDS
GIMME A MUSEUM; I'LL FILL IT
~Pablo Picasso*
- - -<><><>- - -
CAMERA CRITTERS
---The Institute for the Arts has had a wonderful national exhibit on display for the last month or so, and Bud and I finally got a chance to stop by and view all the wonderful works! The exhibit presently is entitled: "Wild At Heart". All done by hundreds of artists from all over the world and from different decades...on loan to share the talents and beauty for our own pleasure and enjoyment. A super array of wildlife in oil, acrylics, bronze, pewter and more.
I did get 'caught' by the security while taking photos with my cellphone and was told that it's against the rules. I'm thinking "So what are you gonna do, kick a paying patron out for admiring such fabulous work? I could understand it if the phone had a flash --that would ruin the paintings...but my goodness, I'm doing no harm." Instead, I apologized and put the phone back in my pocket. Before he reprimanded me tho, I got some wild and wonderful photos of less than1/10 of the exhibit. That's somethin' ---
[all images shown are now pixelated and texted over to stave off any intellectual copying and to prevent files from being copied-and-pasted (exported or downloaded) in its full context from the site in any inappropriate manner for other than the public use --if you wish to see these without distorted pixelations and added text, I'd suggest visiting in person the museum. ]

ReplyDeleteMy Six Words
Wonderful photos of the critters and sculptures. Looks like a great exhibit to visit.
ReplyDeleteLovely art work.
ReplyDeleteAll wonderful posts - been busy and missed commenting.
ReplyDelete~sneaky little one are you...as i first started reading...i thought "you are not allowed to take photos...maybe your museum had different rules" well i guess thats not the case now is it...wonderful photos...brightest blessings~
ReplyDeleteI once saw a security guy at a church in London make a woman delete every picture she had taken....after warning her twice. Glad you got to keep yours.
ReplyDeletenaughty girl, heee hee heee. you stole some beautiful images there....
ReplyDeleteMust have been a very beautiful exposition and intereting too !
ReplyDeleteYou change time already ? In Europe it is always the last weekend in March.
I'm glad you were able to get a few pictures - it's great art! I wonder what their reasoning is for not allowing pictures to be taken?
ReplyDeleteSounds like you thoroughly enjoyed it! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy 6WS!
Great picture!
ReplyDeleteTruly compelling sandy
ReplyDeleteAnni: Quite beautiful when the critters are captured on canvas or in carvings.

Love all Picasso's works! Don't know if you caught a pic in my Friday post of the hotel La Colombe d'Or in S France where Picasso used to stay and paid in kind with works of art in my photo!

Beautiful art!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got to keep your photos. Thanks for visiting MiMi's Mini Tales, too. Love your blog decor!
ReplyDeletevery cool art work
ReplyDeleteHi you Little Stinker You...
ReplyDeleteNow I can't even allow you to go to the museum without getting into trouble. What am I going to do with you? No flash or not, rules are rules. See you have shared with us, so now we don't need to pay to go and view the paintings and art because you have shared with us. Thus stinker, no cameras allowed in the museum.
Oh you are a Hoot. But I sure do LOVE ya just the same. What a wonderful time I have had this morning.
Daylight savings time doesn't worry me. Remember we never change our clocks here. They stay the same. Thank goodness for that.
We are having a beautiful streak of sun again for the next week or so. I am enjoying it tremendously.
Have a beautiful Saturday sweet friend. Country hugs and much love, Sherry
Awesome art pieces!! So glad you were able to "sneak" the pictures out with your phone and share with us. Hope you are having a wonderful Saturday :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked it annie Thanks For Sharing.
ReplyDeleteLarry
Beautiful pictures & frames! WoW!
ReplyDeleteOh I love your new lay out Anni.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful exhibits!
Please come and find out if Champ & Chelsea get along. Happy weekend!
The guards have a valid point, though. By posting photos of the art you are taking copies of intellectual property! People are stealing such all over the world.
ReplyDeleteThis is the problem with people then copying the art.
Knock-offs are everywhere, and it is a shame as people like you and I are celebrating the art.
Everything is waking up in Muskoka!
Those are beautiful!
ReplyDeletePlease take a peek of my sister's PETS
Jenn, thanks for all your help!! I've redone the images to stave off copying from my blog now. Your direction is much appreciated!!!
ReplyDeleteI love museums. I wish there was a good one near us. Thanks for sharing from your excursion. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL. This is so you. I don't know why so many people get their knickers so wadded up about photos in places like that. One time I videoed a Nuclear Sub in Pearl Harbor. I got got and had to delete it right then an there PFFFT!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you on Spring Forward - LOVE Fall back - hate spring forward. Until June, of course, when school's out and I WANT the kids staying up late and sleeping later!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! Absolutely WONDERFUL post!! :-D I LOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have some great photos, as well! :-)
Great post Anni... I really enjoyed it!
ReplyDelete(((HUGS)))

Cool exhibit!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I totally forgot about daylight savings time! Thanks for reminding me. :)
ReplyDeleteI certainly am jealous of your beautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteAll I am looking at right now is a snowbank.......
Very cool! It's been awhile since I took a brose through a museum but our art museum is reopening soon after massive renovations. I can't wait to see what they've done to the place!
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing 6WS!
