Thank you for sharing Sara. I appreciate your view on what art means and I see we share similar tastes! My mum always makes fun of me saying that I live in the wrong city. Florence, of course, is surrounded by art. However, Renaissance art, although I do appreciate it, doesn’t spark any real emotion in me. There are only so many paintings of the Madonna I can take! Whereas, I find the modern art museums in Venice and Milan much more stimulating.
I think perhaps you once told me about your volunteer post at the museum. I’d love to hear more about that. I’ve had some amazing experiences in New York and Amsterdam down to the talks we were given by volunteers. It can be quite an intimate experience.
