Wien Semester, Tag 11: Leopold Museum

Donnerstag, 21 Februar

Started the day of right, with a delicious pesto-cheese filled omlette. Yummily:


 Finally met my language buddy, Viola Rossi, today at a restaurant am dem Nashmarkt! Chatted for almost two hours over curried fish and veggies, and even received complimentary soothing rose-hip soup. Lovely:




Later, I visited the MUMOK (Modern Art Museum) with a friend, but it was closed for a private party. Instead, we visited the Leopold Museum's infamous Nackte Maanner exhibit. Since women are more often portrayed nude in classical art and in museum exhibitions, this exhibit aimed to close that gap with an exhibit dedicated completely to naked men. Thought provoking:


I especially liked these expressive statues...


Interesting implications here.
