Do yourself a favor....

Hey fellow winnipegers....

So this week I had a great opportunity to go to the Winnipeg Art Gallery. I must admit this is my first time attending, which is a sad statement considering I have been living in Winnipeg for the last 10 plus years. Well this week i went to the see "Rodin: A magnificent Obsession." I must I was taken back by Rodin. Some of his sculptures are quiet haunting. I have long found that a face can express things without saying a word.

I just found the whole experience ..fulfilling. I am a believer that God is present in beauty. It is my duty as a believer in God to experience art. There are a couple 'faces' at the exhibit that are rooted in the human experience. You see Rodin..sculpted a couple french men that made a deal with the British that if they would come and rescue their village...in return they would basically be in service to the British. The expression on their faces ...gave me a sensation that i could experience everything they were...the stubborn, pride, anguish. Some of these faces still are in my mind..thinking on things we do for the betterment of humanity.

Well that is just a glimpse of the many works of Rodin...i guess i am writing this...so if any of you winnipeggers need something to fill your time..spend 10 bucks and check it out...it is definitely worth your time and money.
