Museum Moderner Kunst


Whenever I find myself in a building with more than one level, I do 3 things. 
1. Check the date of inspection on the elevator certificate. (You will find that most are expired)
2. Enjoy the view from every window. Sometimes they open to a fire escape. From there I perch myself and enjoy the view.
3. Check for roof access. Ignoring the 'do not enter' signs and opening the dummie locks, 
I am free to explore the vista.

While in Vienna, my mother and I went through 4 exhibits at the MUMOK, Museum Moderner Kunst (Modern Art Museum) I was elated to discover an exhibit celebrating the work of Egon Schiele. Here are some shots from our day there.
 I just liked these doors

After walking through the museum, I asked my mother about her experience there. Her exact words were, "I've never seen so many crotches in my life!" I died laughing. Personally, I have a 3 to 4 penis maximum tolerance when viewing art (specifically photography)

Beating a Dead Horse

Sorry to drag this Europe trip out so long. Talk about a slow burn, this is worse than watching Hamlet in the theater at 9 years old. I'm gonna go ahead and throw down my favorite shots from each country.

Germany


 I can't imagine growing up in such an enchanting place as Germany. Its no wonder that so many fairy tales, songs and paintings were composed here. Its nothing short of inspiring.
