So Not An Art Person

So I finally got around to heading over to the first installation of the MOMA series at the art gallery. And as I suspected, I am so not an art person.

Don’t get me wrong, there were a few pieces which caught my eye and I discovered a new artist, whose work I liked (Romare Bearden) but aside from that, I don’t think I enjoyed it as much as a proper arty farty person would.



(One of my favourites from the exhibition: The Train by Romare Bearden)

Part of it was that I never really learnt about art in school, so I probably don’t know what I’m meant to look for. Part of it was disappointment – I was hoping to see more Warhol pieces but only got 3.

Oh well.



I am still going to visit a few more in the series though – the Pictures of New York and the one featuring Van Gogh (whose The Starry Night has always been my favourite painting). Can’t wait!

It was still a pretty good night – I had an excuse to dress up and I enjoyed the company immensely.

Even if he kept photobombing my pictures.
