“Live Forever” - Elizabeth Peyton at Walker Art Center

If you have not seen this exhibition yet, I highly recommend you to go there.
I’m not an art critic and I judge the pieces of art by my own scale.
It is very easy and has 6 grades:
1. I hate it
2. I don’t like it
3. I don’t care
4. Interesting
5. I like it
6. I love it
So I gave Elizabeth Peyton’s paintings the highest grade in my scale: I loved it. Especially the colors she uses: so deep, bright and vibrant. And I won’t mind if she offered to draw my portrait: everybody is so beautiful in her portraits :-)

And we also spotted two new things near the museum:

1) There is a new sculpture on the lawn right behind Walker Art Center. Probably it have been there for a long time, but I’d never seen it before. This is the sculpture by Angus Fairhurst called “The birth of consistency”. But actually is an orangutan looking in the mirror:-):

2) In the Sculpture Garden I saw an interesting bird:

I checked it on the internet, I think it’s an American redstart, but I’m not sure. If you know the name of this bird, please, tell me! I’m very curious about local birds lately:-)
