De Young is a Fine Arts Museum
bu tthere's more to that
blending modern and traditional art together
many of the main galleries feature modern art
arts of the streets
pieces done using non-traditional media
idolisations
and items,
but that's modern art per se
and the occasional blot of paint!
This is an interesting piece
made mainly out of guns parts
closeup of the detail
teeth and spent bullet casings
it gets more whacked up here
explosion!
including bones of a spine
shaped glass pieces
now for art of a more mellow kind
but it's all expressionist art
some little more crazy than the other
including porcelain vases
some with rather neat designs
and that mostly fuels the modern art scene
you will either love it or hate it
some having more feathers than the rest
art after all lies in the beauty of the beholder
historical artefacts sections
including ancient pottery
with a few crazy touches
and positions!
American ancient art
you can learn alot from the volunteer guides around the museum
so its it art that is American?
