Art

We’ve been home in Sweden for a short visit after almost two years of isolation & are now traveling a couple of weeks in Germany before we return home again. We’ve made many visits to various museums. Partly for the art, partly for the architecture (many museum buildings are fantastic) but also for the great silence when you slowly walk around looking & taking in the works. It’s a very calm & soothing environment.

Exhibition

One of the things that’s always on the list when traveling, is to visit a couple of museums. The exhibition at Städel museum in Frankfurt was a wonderful experience & will remain as a precious memory for life.

Edvard Munch – Norwegian painter. His best known work, The Scream, has become one of the iconic images of world art.
Claude Monet – a French painter & founder of impressionist painting who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it.
Helena Schjerfbeck – a Finnish painter. A modernist painter, she is known for her realist works & self-portraits, and also for her landscapes & still lifes.

Museum

I love museum visits – the buildings, the exhibitions, the premises & the experience. And I would never miss the chance to visit the museum shop. It’s always nice, inspiring & enlightening. This one in Frankfurt is just mind blowing ⭐️

Asian Civilisation Museum

We spent a couple of hours at the Asian Civilization Museum (ACM) recently. It’s one of the pioneering museums specializing in the material history of China, Southeast, South & West Asia, from which the various ethnic groups in Singapore trace their ancestry.

It’s a beautiful building architecturally on the outside & just as beautiful & exciting on the inside. We walked through the exhibition of Tang Shipwreck, Ancient religions & Life in Edo – all beautifully told & well presented.
