Arts and Culture

We have been meaning to make it to the Musée Picasso since we first moved into our apartment (It's less than two blocks away).  Since the first sunday of the month equals free museum entry across the city we decided it was the prefect time to go and soak up a little inspiration.  Judy is a huge Picasso buff because it is her dads favorite artist and every family trips involves some Picasso land mark visits.  The museum also is featuring a really amazing installation from the artist Daniel Buren.  The installation is a Trompe l'oiel (trick of the eye), basically a huge mirror thats half black/half metallic that perfectly runs directly through the entire museum, redefining the whole space entirely.   Its pretty cool and hard to explain  but definitely worth checking out.  But back to the Picasso,  I think the coolest thing about him is just the shear volumes of works that he created, and how many mediums he worked in.  It's really  impressive, his entire life was just about creation and I think thats something that we definitely strive for.  The museum was very inspirational and we ran straight home to get back to work.
