Lenbachhaus

On John's birthday, we went to see his favorite art museum in Munich: the Lenbachhuas. It is in an old palace/villa type building so the building itself is quite grand. They had a wide collection of art but seemed to focus on artists from the Blue Rider group which formed in Munich. The walls in some of the rooms were also quite intersting as they were painted in funkey ways. Some of the rooms had colored walls (which I used to tell John that walls don't have to be white to hang art on). Other rooms had designs on the walls. The museum also had a section that was still decorated the way it would have been when the original owner lived there. The artwork in that section was much older and the lights dimmer. It was quite grand.
