THANK YOU, Phoenix Art Museum, for making some of your exhibits available for visitor photographs. I always enjoy being greeted by this Buddha, on display in one of the main halls. I also love the intricate beauty of this example of traditional Asian attire (below).
The Phoenix Art Museum is one of my favorite cultural venues in central Phoenix. Currently, they are featuring two excellent exhibits. The first is their 2014 installment of The West Select, an annual exhibit devoted exclusively to Western American themed art, which always includes work by two of my favorite Western artists, Ed Mell, a local Phoenix artist, and Arturo Chavez of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Two outstanding, but very different artists. They are also featuring Vanitas: Contemporary Reflections on Love and Death from the Collection of Stephane Janssen, for those of us (like myself) who love skull art, like in the Day of the Dead.
Anyone visiting Phoenix must visit the Phoenix Art Museum.
