Provocative stuff, NGV Australia

There are 2 of NGV in Melbourne – NGV Australia and NGV international. Combining both will make the post painfully long. For this post, let’s look at NGV Australia together. Let’s begin our journey by stating clearly that I’m not an artsy person. I have an intensely hard time understanding arts. The history part isn’t the problem. It is normally the feeling part?

By ?? I didn’t spot the label. It is a pretty piece 😀
By Bruce Armstrong

This room was full of serious looking paintings
Faun and Nymph by Rayner Hoff 1924 Sydney. Is that art or fantastical porn in a sculpture form?
Untitled by Robert MacPherson 1977 Brisbane. My feeling was ‘what’?
Untitled by Peter Booth Melbourne 1966-1967 **I’m sorry, why on earth would this take him 1 year to finish? Someone, please explain this time consuming art to me?
By Sally Gabori 2005. The piece on the right is titled ‘all the fish’. I personally don’t really get that, but the colours look happy and make my eyes funny 😛
Come on… What am I supposed to see /feel from this?

 

This colourful piece reminds me of a cafe in Tokyo where all the food has serious colouring LOL

 

No matter how low my culture level is, the NGV is a pleasant visit. It’s a fab FREE way to get away from the bustling Melbourne CBD and dive into a world of craziness 😛 The place has 3 levels and there’re plenty of couches lying around.
