From Calder to Arcimboldo






(My first post has mysteriously disappeared.) Nevertheless, Art and I had a marvelous time back East. We attended the Maryland Renaissance Fair on Pirates weekend, and spent two full days exploring and being inspired by the museums and the art that Washington D.C. serves up on golden platters. Calder has always been a favorite of ours, but on this trip we discovered the very "trippy" paintings of 15th century Giuseppe Arcimboldo. 15th century art blended with surrealism. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuseppe_Arcimboldo
