Modern Art Gallery in Rome :3

This evening I visited the Modern Art Gallery in Rome.
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!

First of all, the bar.
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

LOOK TEAP, LOOK! It's like Obikà's roll XD

"Eve after the Sin".
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)

---The title was "Untitled" x'DDD
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 ;_;

My favourite painting from the "Italian Landscape"'s room.
This is Posillipo!

This is Rome :D !!
I could tell immediately this was Via del Corso ^_^ !!

"The dead little girl from Transtiber" ;_;

ASAASAFG HAYEZ! THE SICILIAN VESPERS!!!! AASAAFGG!!!

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

A wonderful rendition of Cleopatra *_*

ASASADFXGXGF CANOVA!!!! CANOVA, FUCK YEAH!!!!

Giovanni Boldini's works.
I didn't know this artist, but I really liked his portraits of fancy women :D
"Portrait of Marchionesse Casati" *_*

"Portrait of M.lle Lanthelme"

Yeeeee, let's kill all the French peopleeee!!
(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 ^_^
Very cute figure ^_^

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