RE: At the Art Institute of Chicago

in Ecency13 days ago

So nice to have a world class art museum so near by in Chicago. I remember living in Philadelphia and being able to visit the museum there very frequently. It was a city with so much history, and crime unfortunately too... Welcome the the big city. That painting about loneliness of living in the big city can be very true today. It makes you realize the universal truth of big city living transcends time and will likely always be the same. However, people sure dressed a lot nicer back then didn't they?

That is a cool Dali, I'm not sure I've seen it before. He was a very talented painter and made some interesting works over the years! Thanks for sharing the great pictures, it's a shame you can't get out there yourself anymore!

I used to have an annual membership to the Art Institute and went frequently. Now I am so glad that my kids love it as much as I do and fill our family album with photos and joyful memories!

I grew up in a small town where I knew everyone. I still remember the feeling of loneliness I had in NYC while walking amidst the throngs of people and realizing that there was no one there that I knew.
