WYSIWYG

What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Menotalid; it was Adelaide (pt 2) Me-now-views in disguise!

Yesterday I told you of our visit to the Art Gallery of South Australia. Here are several images taken there. The gallery has a free photography policy as long as not used for commercial purposes. I guess this is becoming more the case the world over as it would be almost impossible to stop the onslaught of the ubiquitous instagram mob. All these art works carry the copyright of the artists but are placed here for interest and no claim beyond the photographic presentation is made by myself. I am in remiss in that I did not note all names to match with the works, for which I can only request forgiveness. The aborignal works you see are of deceased artists and I pay homage to them and their people, with gratitude for the pleasure received from the sighting.


The last three above were Ben Quilty works. The following room was striking for its contrasts but the red blush at the end drew us through. In there, Soffee and I revelled in red!!!

  3. The one with the pretty pink flowers (roses?) is beautiful. Interesting suspended upside down tree:) And we loved the three Ben Quilty ones. Soffee sure seems entranced by the reds.
