Art in Everyday Life

Milwaukee Museum of Art

What is art? When traveling I enjoy popping into Museums and galleries.  But art is not only in museums. Representations that bring pleasure or excitement are also found in everyday life.  in industrial deign, and packaging.  A few maverick artists have turned the everyday into museum pieces.  There is some extraordinary public art, large scale sculpture, and even large scale paintings.

  1. since we are an older city, we have the old and the new in architecture side by side. even flowers are artwork if you look close enough.

  2. Yes, I agree with you. While I, too, enjoy museums (and the occasional gallery, but in those I am usually unhappy because I can't afford the beautiful artwork!), I also enjoy finding beauty in the mundane, everyday things in life.

  3. I like the blood-heads and the helicopter crashes.
