点评:Greatly enjoyed the circular part of the museum, the 7-floor, northern section.
Some of the angular building across the walkway was closed, but I cared little for what I saw there. Interesting building though.
Back to the first building, there was so much to enjoy, and a good variety of artwork that my hips were getting tired and so was I, even though there are benches to rest on each floor. So I took a break for water and snack on the first floor coffee shop, then went back to see everything.
Through the huge coffee shop windows I saw a number of homeless people with backpacks and many plastic bags enter the large public library across a broad walkway. Maybe there's a care area for them there. I thought they were attracted to the museum, as I was asked for money numerous times walking the two blocks to and from the art museum. But I think they were more interested in the library facilities actually.
Maybe the museum is setting up better exhibits in the south building, but the 7-floor building is worth the trip by itself. There also is a restaurant as well as the coffee shop in that building.
翻译:非常喜欢博物馆的圆形部分,也就是北侧的七层楼。
走廊对面那栋棱角分明的建筑有些地方关闭了,不过我对那里的展品并不感兴趣。但那栋建筑本身倒是挺有意思的。
回到第一栋楼,里面有很多东西可以欣赏,艺术品种类也很丰富,以至于我的腰都酸了,我也累了,尽管每层楼都有长椅可以休息。所以我在一楼的咖啡馆里喝了点水,吃了点零食,然后又回去继续参观。
透过咖啡馆巨大的窗户,我看到一些背着背包、拎着很多塑料袋的流浪汉走进了走廊对面的大型公共图书馆。也许那里有个专门为他们设立的收容区。我一开始以为他们是被博物馆吸引过来的,因为我在往返美术馆的两个街区里好几次被人要钱。但我现在觉得他们其实是更想去图书馆。
也许博物馆正在南楼筹备更好的展览,但即使只参观这栋七层楼的美术馆,也绝对值得一去。那栋楼里还有一家餐厅和一家咖啡馆。
