Bordeaux

We caught the train into Bordeaux today, which took only an hour. We wondered aimlessly around this great French town, it was awesome to see the heritage listed Cathedral and Victoria Place. (I did wanna give it the Teddy Whitten 'stick it right up em' but thought the gypsys might not quite get it) We spent the afternoon in this amazing Museum of Modern Art in north Bordeaux. It is housed in the ancient warehouse that used to be used for stocking coal, tobacco and wine etc. It is by far the coolest gallery we've visited so far, because you are in awe at the building before you even see any artwork. Mind you, modern art as the usual 'this is crap', and then something pops up that really takes your eye. A photo I've attached is this amazing photo piece, where the subject is covered in clay, and gradually takes it all off to reveal himself. Very cool indeed. The complete highlight of my day.....I found a french version of the 'Empire Strikes Back' movie poster. To some that will mean nothing, but I know a few out there will appreciate it. It's going straight to the pool room!
