An Afternoon of Modern Art

On saturday, I went to the Bates County Museum of Art with my parents. We saw the new modern art exhibit, and it was pretty strange. There were one painting that didn’t really look like anything but slattered paint. Another painting was made out of foil and torn paper. There were also lots of crazy statues made out of metal, bottles, and cans. One even made out of bicycle parts. Did I mention that we ate lunch first? Anyway, the exhibit might be interesting for somebody who like modern art.
