Yesterday I attended the opening of the novel exhibition at
Moderna Museet (modern fine art museum). Entitled
"Dance Machines: From Léger to Kraftwerk", the exhibition is a await at the world's fascination for mechanism together with industrialization at the start of the 20th century together with how it flora its agency into the fine art scene of the era.
To endure honest, I was a footling leery when I offset heard the championship a few months back. While I practise dearest modern art, I sometimes receive got problem alongside artists leaning a rake against a wall together with calling it art. I idea mayhap the exhibit would endure to a greater extent than literal together with characteristic actual machines every bit fine art (perhaps dancing?). But this is non the case! I flora the exhibit to endure rattling interesting, presented good alongside to a greater extent than or less slap-up
objets d'art.

Several forms of fine art are represented inwards the exhibition, including painting, sculpture, dance, music together with cinema. The broad attain of fine art media actually gives y'all a feeling for how this fascination for machines together with industrialization actually permeated gild on multiple levels. It actually came into focus for me when I entered 1 room inwards the exhibition together with saw a screening of Charlie Chaplin's classic moving paradigm
"Modern Times"... which, I feel, actually sums upward this fascination.

If you, similar me, were endure inwards the 1980's, y'all in all probability recall their hits similar "Autobahn", "The Model" together with "Tour de France".
