Crystal Bridges Offers Chic Contemporary Experience with ambiance that strikes the right chord  for Modern Art Lovers. In fact there is a great balance of elements – natural, architectural, realism and modernism to experience inside and outside. But honestly, what I did not expect was the thoughtfully curated contemporary collection of both 20th and 21st century American Artists works.

So this Spanista Art Culture Rituals Story is devoted to a stimulating journey through one portion of the Crystal Bridges Museum founded by Alice Walton. I wanted to start with Modern Art to help expand our horizons. Often I find people have an issue understanding Modern Works. I studied it in College appreciating it from an intellectual perspective but not until I experienced life from many angles did I begin to see its depth of meaning – its emotional affect it what is important – it is how you feel when you look come into it circle of influence that matters. I now let each modern work speak to me emotionally – if I stand still for a moment to let it affect wash over me I find a message arrives from the Artist that is relevant to me. I discover its value and enjoyment comes with it.  Next time you are exposed to Modern Art give this style of viewing a try.

As a creative soul I often get a craving to view beautiful art – do you? Just being in its presence gives me positive energy and helps drive me move forward – it opens my mind and stimulates my imagination for what is possible. I think, if one creates something of such beauty from truth it has an enduring quality that can live on long into the future. If your thirst for something to feed your soul – visit an Art History Museum. Yes, you can do it FREE. For example, Wal-Mart offers a visit to Crystal Bridges Museum for FREE. Many museums even the MET in New York have free days. Check it out it wont’s cost you a penny to have hours of enrichment and can bring a new level of joy.

Here is just a flavor of the Crystal Bridges Chic Contemporary Experience. This includes a very pleasant casual dining experience too. More on that tomorrow. This Spanista Travel Diary feature does not want to spoil your visit by revealing too much.  Enjoy the pics and tell me what you think?

To Your Self Care Journey To Joy,

Ginny
