LOUISIANA

This weekend I went to Helsingborg in Sweden. From there I travelled by ferry and train over to Humlebaek in Denmark, to visit Louisiana for the first time! Oh it was wonderful! And would have been even better if not for the icy cold windy weather. I didn't dare take a tour in the park around the museum and that was a shame because it looked absolutely lovely. All the more reason to go there soon again. Lots of art, lots of people and a very nice restaurant. The place was quite crowded despite the weather so I guess it must be really stuffed with visitors a nice summers day.... The Contemporary exhibition was by Tara Donovan and was much admired by the crowd though I rather think it was more design than art. There's a few photos below. The other exhibition was Pop art design and was fun but not exciting. Then Louisiana's collection was very nice to see with  artworks from 1945 and onward by artists like Per Kirkeby, Andy Warhol, Bacon, Giacometti, Asger Jorn and Gerhard Richter.
