Art for Art's Sake at the Weisman

Wow!  When entering the galleries one is immediately struck by the sheer beauty of the art.  This is not the day for Minimalism or Conceptual art.   Today,  just enjoy being surrounded by the glorious colors shapes.  That is what the artists intended.  They are all part of the 19th-century Aesthetic Movement.
