On the media preview for the exhibit THE BIRTH OF IMPRESSIONISM MASTERPIECES FROM THE MUSÉE D’ORSAY at the Frist Center for the Visual Arts I was excited to hear Nashville Mayor Karl Dean say that “This is a city that values art”. (see TwitVideo below – Mobile Users Click Here )
The pictures are wonderful and if you live anywhere near, or can get to, Nashville before January 23, 2011, please be sure to visit all of the exhibits at this museum as well as an assortment of other fantastic commercial art galleries and shoppes that bring truth to his statement.
While the rest of the press and bloggers made note of the importance of the pictures in this exhibit, I became distracted by the interesting frames and the stories they literally held in place. I’m sure some of the frames were original and some may have been replacements, we’ll have to ask the curators about this. The experience left me thinking philosophically about what type of frames we place around our own stories.
The accessories of our life are all are version of our artful pallet that tells the story of who we are. As we live our artful life, it is important to remember just how we frame things may change the story itself.
