Last visit to Montreal Museum of Contemporary Art


Visited Montreal Musem of Contemporary Art this afternoon.
I personaly think the exhibition was a good one, if anyone else's thinking of going.
Below are some of the works I found interesting.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Robert Polidori's collection of photography.
He took pictures of the deteriorated interior of many different sites, which was once ornately decorated and possessed by people with high status.
You could really see the tragedies in these pictures. The glamour that it once had could just vanish through times of chaos.
(reminds me of The Last Emperor, watch that movie if you haven't!)

Christine Davis
Words projected onto a background full with buttons with 2 mirrors at the side.
I walked into this dark room mesmerized... took me a minute to figure out what was going on with her work.

Adad Hannah
Collage using projectors

Spring Hurlbut
A collection of antique cribs and cradels. Lots of them rusted.
Although it's a huge collection of cribs and cradels sitting in the exhibition room, it felt like walking in a cemetery.
