Art Speaks (S1, E4) | AT THE MUSEUM

What does art say to you? MoMA staff and visitors reflect on the purposes of modern art: an aide to clear your mind, symbols of societal change, or as abstract images that can form links between two complete strangers. See what it takes to run a modern museum in our new documentary series: "At the Museum." A new episode premieres each Friday on KZbin: mo.ma/subscribe

My dad (Mainer) was the same way about art until my son a few years ago flew down to Florida to spend a couple of weeks with his grandfather. My son suggested going to the Dali Museum in upper Florida and my dad didn't want to go, but decided that his grandson wanted to, so that was the reason they made the almost 3 hour trip to the museum. My dad was reluctant to go inside once there BUT once inside, he went into "shock". My son couldn't get his grandfather to leave! Dali's works engulfed my dad. Great art does that. XO

How interesting! I have been looking at this video for 8 minutes and didn't realize that i was traveling in NYC and visited MoMA the exact time this video was been shot, until i saw Louise Bourgeois's spider. Then I went through the video again to see if I was in it. LOL
