ART on Wednesday

Painting by Robert Motherwell

 On Wednesday I went to Ft Worth for the afternoon. It was a very hot day and the skies were overcast. It was the perfect day to be inside a museum. 

I went to the Robert Motherwell exhibit at the 

Modern ART Museum of Fort Worth.

Robert Motherwell was an American abstract expressionist painter, printmaker, and editor of The Dada Painters and Poets: an Anthology. He was one of the youngest of the New York School, which also included Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko. 

The exhibit was at the Modern ART Museum and had been wanting to see it since  it opened earlier in the month. I have a habit of going to an exhibit that I love, when it opens and once again before it closes. This exhibit closes in September.

I loved this exhibit. I was an ART student in the late '60's and early 70's. This is the ART I grew up with. It is ART that shouts to both ARTist and viewer. It is true abstract ART.

There were many young people at the exhibit and I wondered what their feelings were? They seemed happy and carefree, just as the canvases were meant to make us feel.

Robert Motherwell had inspired me on an awful, hot, steamy June day. Don't you love when that happens? When you are unexpectedly inspired by someone or something? It is the best feeling on the world. It makes me feel so very thankful.

Love you beyond the moon.
