We are (with) Art

Would you be surprised to know that contemporary art thrives in Des Moines, Iowa? At the Des Moines Art Center. Since our roadtrip kinda ended up being about art, we decided to be with art. :) We had a beautiful day to walk around the Art Center and "be one" with the work. Hee.

Are you ready for some name dropping? (Okay, so we don't really know these artists, but now we've rubbed shoulders with them, er, their work.)

Here we are outside the IM Pei wing, posing in front of a Sol Lewitt

Narra serves as a third in Andrew Goldsworthy's "Three Cairns"

And here we enjoy Mary Miss's Greenwood Pond project

And, finally, our fave: Bruce Nauman. Guy's a freak! :)

Dudes! We were asleep when the Phillies won but we got up bright and early to the news. Wooooooo! It is kind of cool they have a tank of rays in the stadium, though. I think the Phillies should install a dog pen! Preferably near a snack stand....
