Guggenheim in Melbourne


We flew to Melbourne (to escape the tedium of APEC) where today's highlight was our visit to the Guggenheim exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria. There were fewer works on display than I imagined there might be but that's churlish. I guess it takes a huge effort and massive insurance bill to get the works into a plane and across the Pacific. There were four rooms of memorable, sometimes confronting, art on display. Well worth the visit.
