Venice Guggenheim Museum. A statue by Antoine Pevsner called Developable Surface. The Sea by Mondrian. Dark brown lines on light brown. Domenico Gnoli, Sleeper No.2, oil on sand and canvas. Some known Picassos. Yves Tanguy, better than Dali? Umberto Buccioni, Materia, huge praying troll mother surrounded by dark light painted in dark colors. Other names not to forget, Carlo Carra, Ardengo Soffici and Luigi Russolo. The latter creator of The Solidity of Fog, very blue. Magritte, empire of light. As always in this kind of museum only about one out of ten paintings is worth looking at but that one makes it worthwhile.
