Con Amore

  This week I went to the Con Amore-Leif Djurhuus Collection exhibit at the ARoS Aarhus Art Museum.  The special exhibit is a extensive contemporary art collection by an art collector, Leif Djurhuus.  The collection spans over 30 years of Danish and international art.
  It encompasses all the various forms of visual art expression, from painting, video and sculpture to interactive objects and installation art.  The theme of the exhibit is "psychedelic & freaky, art & cocaine, eye-opening works."  It was definitely a mind-blowing exhibit.  Here are some of the photos I was able to take!





                                              ...  Yes, the frog has breasts haha.













Installation made completely of tires.







"Big Boy"
This is one of the center attractions at the museum (by standing next to it you can see how enormous it is.)  It took years to create.  He actually has real human hair!




Even his feet look shockingly real.


At the top of the museum is the rainbow panorama you can walk through & see the entire city below.




My Danish friend Sandra and I :)

Well, that is all for now.  I will update this weekend with pictures of my university & write about my current life in Aarhus.
Friends, family & loved ones... air hug! 

Hej! Hej! (Bye, Bye.)
