Modern Art Gallery in Rome :3

I usually avoided this place, thinking about the concept of "modern art" and picturing all that stuff that I'd like to throw into a huge garbage bin, but my cousin forced me to go, promising me lots of cool stuff-- And it was true!

My cousin decided that he couldn't go on without coffee, so he forced me to go there with him before looking around XD
The place was kinda cool <3


This is a XIX century's statue, part of a bigger installation. Of course we ignored the installation and focused on the statues XD
This was a fun scene XD

Dae: Wait..? Where's the picture there..?
ME AND MY COUSIN DECIDED THAT THE EMPTY WALL WAS PART OF THE PICTURE XD (LOL, conceptual art x'D)

Dae: ..Do you think that I can take a picture?
Cousin: What if the flash ruins it?!
Dae & Cousin: LOLOLOLOL!
It's always fun making fun of contemporary art, LOL.
Then, the rooms were divided into various themes-- The most of the artworks were from the XIX century, so it was full of cool stuff ;o; !!!
Unfortunately I couldn't take pictures of all the things I liked ;_;

This is Posillipo!

I could tell immediately this was Via del Corso ^_^ !!



It's "The Temptations of Saint Antony" by Domenico Morelli.
Here's an higher resolution's picture.
ASASDFASDFSFDSFG!!!!


Giovanni Boldini's works.
I didn't know this artist, but I really liked his portraits of fancy women :D



(x'DDD)
I obviously didn't check the title of the painting or the artist ^_^; I just though "WOW, whatta nice shades of red! Followers of Garibaldi! COOOOOL!!!! I HAVE TO TAKE A PICTURE!!"
x'D
There were lots of cool things that I couldn't take pictures of!!!
Like, Klimt's "The three ages of woman", Sartorio's The Gorgon and the Heroes and ASASGSG Diana of Ephesus and the Slaves...
Here's an interesting article about Sartorio in English!
Uh, yeah, we didn't manage to see it all ;_; Apperently two hours and half weren't enough--
So, we enjoyed the view of Rome by night--
I took some pictures, but the result is horrifying, as you can see T_T;


And, any fan of TinTin here :3 ? I found this in a comic shop in Rome and I decided to take a pic ^_^

Ok, and that's all XD
If you ever come here, take a peek to this place! It's worth it!
