Mumok Museum, Vienna

Mumok = Museum Moderner Kunst
basically it means Museum of Modern Art

this was in our itinerary of must visit
there were tonnes of good museums in Vienna so we had to choose only those important ones to visit
u practically spend one whole week visiting all of its amazing museums

the external part of the building is pretty raw
and so was inside....
separated into a few levels, made entirely from glass and steel I felt like we were in a space ship
with its see through floor like the above just made me quivered

I was pretty mesmerized with its glass and steel lift
but it was still a scary ride....goin up and down innit

JS was all happy esp when he gets to see me terrified
we were required to wear a grey MUMOK tag so we can just hang around in the compound
I lurve it so much that I took it home :P

this museum proves to be different from the rest
housing works from the famous Andy Warhol *it is currently on exhibition in Marina Bay Sands*
Joseph Beuys, Nam June Paik, Roy Lichtenstein
nvm if you are not familiar with these famous names
soon u'll see their works here...on this blog :P

hmmmm......that's a huge saw!!!!!
and it looked so real

not only it can saw ur head off but almost every part of ur body
:P hehehehehehehehe

that's a very 60's ashtray in black marble
I remembered my home having one of those when I was lil gal

now that I've put myself next to it for comparison
that's one of a mother ashtray :P

different pieces of arts using different medium

aaaahhh I can't reach for the switch mom!!!!!

dunno wat it is?

now u get it????
hehehehe it's fun to look at each piece and then try to interpret them

I like how each articles were grouped according to medium and artists
in such huge space
can u spot that huge piece of cake at the far end???
hehehehehhehehehe

alamak JS....these art pieces are made from cardboxes...
if u gonna wee wee on it....it's gonna be GONE!!!!!
STOP!!!!!

I have no idea wat these were
and the description in german ain't helping me...
later JS told me these were 2 pin sockets/plugs

I came for this Mickey Mouse with red heart by Claes Oldenburg
this famous sculpture did most of the huge pieces of everyday objects

when Mickey misbehaved he get this paperbag hood by the police
I lurve it so much
if only they have it for sale at the souvenir shop
:((((((

this is so big it's enuff to brush my oven!!!!!!

later we walked through the Pop Art
the ladder as part of the art pieces
not that some workers left it there :P

that human standing right in front of this piece is not part of the exhibition
"Car Crash" by Andy Warhol
OK ok ok I must must must attend the exhibition by Mr. Warhol in Singapore soon
LOVE rising by Robert Indiana
L.O.V.E.
:)))))))))))))))

wanna have coffee with me???

or get chased by a huge electric blue tarantula??
hmmm guess we were the only visitor posing with art pieces
:P
so Malaysian hahahahaha

we saw many art students were doing case study, painting and drawing
and working adults visiting this place during lunch break
wat a way of life
no wonder Vienna was voted World No. 1 for the best quality of life

later we went down to the basement
art classes are conducted here
teaching u on the different medium and colors

since it was lunch break, no one was here...we just loitered around
looking at canvases by other wannabe art students :P

there's also a nice lounge at the basement with natural lights for visitors
lots of art books
if I'm Austrian, I can imagine coming here during lunch hour
*JS said more like me goin shopping on that famous street during lunch hour -_-*

Berr was here!!!!!
:)))))))))))

totally worth spending a nice afternoon here
and there's 6 more museums at this quarter from contemporary, art noveau to classical and impressionism.

Life lately....

Sorry....
I've gone "dark" last week due to work
dark as in really disconnected fr the cyber world
-_-


all is well now,
u'll get back ur morning reads soon
:)))))))


weekend had been a hectic one,
also needed sometime *a lot of time* to re-charge my battery


how funny age does to everyone....
gone were the days where I can stay up late and still looked like a daisy the next morning
goodbye to energetic me, when I can work non-stop for the entire week without sleep
sayonara to my drinking session.....coz I can't drink and eat like I used to
and most of all my poor brain!!!!!
I can't absorb as fast as it used to......
sigh...


my only regret now, not taking up my Masters Degree 4 years ago
when I was so passionate and determined *I even met up the professor for consultation*
sigh....no point living in regrets
or worry bout the future
always appreciate PRESENT
that's why it's called present = gift

Prada Saffiano Lux Tote

isn't the color so candy lolly-liked?

this was my latest bag purchase back in end March in Vienna, Austria

so I've been without a new bag for the past 2 months!!! *April and May*

bravo bravo...it's a feat coz I have finally moved out from the jinx of one new bag each month

it started out with an iphone cover at the boutique
that was the initial mission 
then my eyes darted to the arrays of merchandise in Spring colors


while the credit card transaction was goin thru for the iphone cover, Monkey selected a Peonia colored name card holder
-_-"
I was grinning to the Sales Associate and she had to do another transaction
:P


u know it's a dangerous game to wait inside such a nice boutique
or maybe it's just their tactics to take their own sweet time processing the transaction
giving us shoppers more time to browse..


and from a small tiny iphone cover purchase to name card holder
I landed myself this bag
:D:D:D
yeah I know...I sooo hate myself too :P

Lurve this color so much I even had my nails painted in it :D:D:D

and now I m suppressing myself fr the urge to get any bags

let's see how long this can last...I've broken the record of 2 months :)))))

I think I need a new hobby/interest

let's not even suggest jewelries ok???
