We are lucky enough to be living in Amsterdam on a work assignment. This is mostly rambling thoughts about our adventures and life here.

Stadelijk Museum - Modern Art

This was a fun museum and we only got through about 1/2 today.

Great paintings - recognize any of the masters? Chagall, Kandinsky, Picasso, Van Gogh, and more!  Such an interesting collection of classics, new work and even political posters.


Fun activities:
At the museum they are using images on stickers of current buildings and materials to allow families to create the "City of the Future" and we added our own touches. They are capturing the changes with time-lapse photography and it will be interesting to see how it evolves.

Connor created a defender of the city against Cyborg dragon enemies.

Easton and Luke created a mammoth 800-story tower.  Unfortunately a ship may have already crashed into the top of the tower.  I added some bridges and highways between other buildings.

  1. Wow, that looks fun! I love the idea of building a 'city' on the wall as art.

  2. Oh you are so lucky! This looks fun. I'll bet the boys were seriously occupied turning those buildings into scenes on the wall. I love the artwork that you shared!
