We had a family field trip to the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History today. Growing up, this was always one of my favorite places to visit. I was delighted to share it with my family today. The museum is an awesome blend of local history and art, but it also features a rotating world-class exhibit.
With over 10,000 works of art and almost 30,000 historical artifacts, there was a lot to see. I snapped some photos of the interesting and beautiful things we saw today, but of course, didn't manage to capture even a fraction.
These are some of my favorite things from the exhibits:
Chima Altar Ford III- by Luis Tapia
El Cuerpo de Christo by Paul Pletka
Studio Bay with View of Taos Pueblo by Robert Ellis
Approaching Storm by Bruce Lowney
Car Seat by Thomas Barrow
Of course my very unprofessional photographs don't do these beautiful works of art justice. If you are ever in Albuquerque, New Mexico, many of these pieces of art have a permanent home at the museum, which is located at 2000 Mountain Road NW Albuquerque, NM 87104.
