A wander around the Institute’s permanent collection followed the visit to the Martin Luther exhibition at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Here are some of my favourites.
The hanging sculpture is Ahab by Alexander Calder (1953). If anyone knows what the piece on the wall is, I’d be grateful to hear from you.
I’m a sucker for ancient Chinese horses. Here’s Celestial Horse, a 1st century creation from the Eastern Han dynasty.
This is Duluth Living Room created by John S Bradstreet in 1906.
Who doesn’t enjoy anything by Chuck Close? This is Frank (1969).
In the gallery of works by artists from Minnesota is this painting by Julius Holm. Tornado over Saint Paul. (1893)
