At the Guggenheim Venice

Well this was a wonderful surprise. Peggy Guggenheim; wealthy, well connected and passionate about modern art of the first half of the century amassed this staggering collection and was seminal in promoting the various movements. They are all represented here. Cubism, Surrealism, Abstract expressionism, and not by minor works. This is a heavyweight collection including; Picasso, Braque, Miro, Dali, Magritte, Klee, Kandinsky, Moore, Delaunay and many more. It’s a fabulous walk through the development of art until the 1960s.

I loved these glass figures after Picasso’s art framed in a window overlooking the Grand Canal by Egidio Constantini
Magritte
Jackson Pollock
Dali
The garden
