These pics are from the McNay Museam. The first section I went into was called Rodin to Warhol: 60th Anniversary Gifts and Recent Acquisitions. It did include a Warhol, however I was not allowed to take any pictures in this exhibit. However, here is a picture from the internet of the image I saw:













Outside that exhibit was what they call the AT&T Exhibit hall. This is where this awesome modern art piece by Paul Vilinski called "Burst" was. Its all made of old records.














After that you go into the manion which is the main collections where they have the picassos and monet and other art. Some of this art however, I'm not sure how it is called art. There was a piece that was just a bunch of quilted squares???? I could do that.... but alas, I have not and they did. So here are the pieces.
