Getting Artsy Fartsy in KCMO
I spent a few hours today at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in the Plaza area of KCMO. Lots of cool stuff to see but I was mostly interested in the outdoor sculpture garden.
This is the view from the steps of the entrance. You can see two of the shuttlecock sculptures and the Thinker in the foreground.
Yes, it is The Thinker. I had no idea that this was at this museum. You can see the third of the four shuttlecocks in the background.
So, a little story about this photo. I actually put Minnie in the sculpture when I backed away to take a photo. All of the sudden I heard this voice (coming from a camera and speaker to the side of the sculpture) telling me to take whatever I put on the sculpture off. Woah. So I took her off and had to take the photo this way.
This is the back of the museum. There’s another shuttlecock and a cool fountain.
I took a bunch of photos, which you can see here.
