I have been told many people find it hard to understand abstract art. I guess you never go wrong if you trust your intuition, you like it or you don't. Simple. However, you might be surprised that most of the art is much more likable, once you know something about it, no need to have a degree in art history, just a bit of curiosity. I decided to call this piece " Thoughts verse Ideas". How often do we have many bright thoughts, like little colorful sparks, yet how few become ideas...Great ideas come as a stripe, wiping off all the irrelevant staff. Most new ideas they are wide and light, the more specific and narrow they become, the more deep. I have chosen green, as the color of everything new, and an apple has always been a symbol of a great idea. Now you see so much more than dots, stripes and apple, because your curiosity got you there !

Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering - because you can't take it in all at once. Here i am, trying to organize my overwhelming experience of all the art that shaped my taste, formed my views, trained my eye to appreciate beauty and caused everlasting admiration and respect to the Masters. Huge part of it was from visiting Art museums. In the past few years i was lucky to visit a number of them all over the world, so here is my TOP 23 1) Hermitage, St.Petersburg Russia. 2) Musee D' Orsay, Paris. 3) Louvre, Paris. 4) Museo National del Prado, Madrid. 5) Viktoria&Albert museum, London. 6) The British museum, London. 7) Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid. 8) The Russian museum, St.Petersburg. 9) Musei Vaticani, Vatican. 10) Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. 11) Tretyakov State Gallery, Moscow. 12) Galleria nazionale d'Arte Moderna, Rome. 13) Tate Britain, London. 14) Centre Pompidou, Paris. 15) Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen. 16) National Gallery of Denmark, Copenhagen 17) Victoria museum, Melbourne 18) Albertina, Vienna. 19) Van Gogh museum, Amsterdam 20) Figueres Dali Theatre-museum, Figueres. 21) Aros museum, Aarhus. 22) The National Gallery, Oslo. 23) Museum of Islamic Art, Doha P.S. The most inspirational cities i ever been to is Barcelona, St.Petersburg, Rome, Paris and Venice. They can't be described by Art museums, because they are ART themselves. Note, i haven't been to any museum of USA or Japan so they are not included in my listing, i am looking forward to see them in the near future. My list is very subjective, but i would be delighted if you share your experience with me and let me know which art museums do you enjoy the most ?
