Art from Art

I felt bad about intruding into this couple's private moment but I enjoyed watching how they were interacting with the installation art piece. In fact they were experimenting with different angles to capture an interesting photo image. I think this is where it's good for museums to allow people to take photos . It encourages interaction with the sculpture, and promotes engagement and involvement so that art is not just about passive viewing. The invitational environment provides warmth and positive feelings, almost like a day out in the park for children. Museums don't have to be art-farty stuff. Notice that the sculpture has evoked a different creative response from the audience. Art as a multplier!
