We went and visited the Contemporary Art Museum today, and lets just say it was interesting.What does "contemporary art" even mean? While there were some cool exhibits, there was also some crap ones, but i won't bore you with that. I selected the best exhibit to share with you guys. It was creepy and cool all at the same time. Drum roll please....................... This piece is called "Novecento" by Maurizio Cattelan
So stuffing and hanging dead animals from the ceiling is officially art. I'm not going to lie, it was really cool to see in person. But who thinks of that? I told Novey i will be impressed when they hang an elephant from the ceiling.
Outside of the museum there were 4 statues of Jesus by different artists meaning different things.
After we left the museum, we followed the massive crowd students there for World Youth Day to a re-enactment of the crucifixion. I thought it was quite moving, and the backdrop was beautiful as the sun was setting. The pictures didn't turn out as well as i hoped, but you get the point.
I think my flatmate took better pics, so i will try to post them when i can. You had to see it with the orange sunset. If you haven't noticed, i have posted more than 1 blog in the same day. I amaze myself too.
