i spent a wonderful day with my mother today in ft. worth, tx . first lunching outside at the kimball art museum cafe. after our lunch we then walked across the street to the modern art museum designed by tado ando. both jolene and i have blogged about him in the past and i have wanted to got to the museum for several years now. i finally made it and it was so nice to meander around the galleries taking in all the modern art with my mother. thanks mom for a great day!!! xo amanda
below and above. two robert motherwell paintings were a fantastic surprise! have always loved his work.
i was so impressed by how ando extended louis kahn's architectural language of the kimball art museum situated next door into this new building. so fantastic! the kimball in ft. worth has long been one of my favorite museums to visit. i now add the modern to my top ten list. so great!!!
