Sometimes it's sunny

The weather is getting better all the time here. It's been very sunny all week and the sky has been very blue. Mikkel, his sister Kim, her boyfriend Thijs and I went to the ARoS Art museum last week to see some exhibits. One was from a Danish photographer who hitchhiked around the USA and documented his time. He became fascinated by the racism he saw during his stays in the 60s and continuing through his most recent trip in 2009. His name is Jakob Holt, and he now gives seminars on racism and acts as a mediator throughout the states. He's traveled all over the world, sometimes accompanied by famous poets, authors and musicians. You can see his work here on his Web site.

The most famous attraction at the museum is the giant boy statue. It's creepy and cool and interesting all at the same time.

We also saw an exhibit called "I love you." It was a series of different works, from paintings, to movies to installations, all talking about what love meant. A certain piece was especially sad. It was called Portrait of Ross in L.A. It was a pile of candy that viewers were allowed to eat. As the pile got smaller, it mimicked how the subject withered away during his battle with AIDS. 

But on a less sad note, the flowers are in bloom and everyone is getting to be in great spirits. I even snapped this shot on the way home the other day.
