(5,101 posts)Yes, 2 very interesting museum
I do have 3 of my close friends that are art historians. None of them work as historian but they still involved in the field in their spare time 2 of them are specialised in
Roman Empire (-100 JC +100 JC or so) and more specifically in all what is related to locksmith. The 3rd is more involved in painting (his father was a painter and had some notoriety). All what regards to Renaissance, Italian painters but also flemish.
They do often laugh at me because I claim loudly having any artistic sens.
That is, in one way true, some pieces of modern art let me really baffled and sometimes I just feel like it is a joke Really, i cannot understand how some pieces can be considered as art
With non offense to anyone. for example, a few years ago, a dirty tub was exposed and called "art". I have heard about it on TV because the person in charge of cleaning the gallery, had accidently cleaned the tub. Well it has probably some artistic sens but i remain hermetically closed to this kind of art.
