    Minimalist Art in the
    Snow
    by yooperprof
    I'm not sure I understand this piece. It's "Untitled," by Ellsworth Kelly. According to a museum brochure, "Ellsworth Kelly has spent years exploring the aesthetic possibilities of simple, pure form. He reduces his painting and sculptures to as few elements as possible, even to the point of using a single shape and color."

    The University of Toledo Center for the Visual Arts is immediately adjacent to the Toledo Art Museum. You could this as a test run for Gehry's masterpiece, the Guggenheim in Bilbao. Compare this to his design, also from the mid-90s, for the University of Minnesota Art Museum - I have a picture of it on my Minneapolis page.

    I'm not to sure what the real names are for these goats but they are a type of mountain goat. Notice the monkyes at the tree.

    This fellow was very friendly. He kept following me back and fourth as I walked in front of his cage. He did not spit at me but he did stick his tonuge out once.

  • During the summer, be sure to check out the Toledo Mud Hens baseball team. They play in a beautiful new stadium right downtown. It's affordable, and a fun family atmosphere. And, yes, if you're a MASH fan, it's Klinger's team!
