After St. Germain-en-Laye, we still had enough energy to visit the Pompidou. We are only mild fans of contemporary art, and our modest expectations were nearly met. The permanent "modern" collection remains our favorite part of this museum. (Except they never have the right Roualts on display). Here are a few items we liked.
 |
| The Pompidou Centre from Place Pompidou |
 |
| A bit of a parody whose title I didn't get |
 |
| Georgia O'Keefe |
 |
| You've heard of the Cubists; this is one of the lesser-known Cylinderistes |
 |
Alfred Courmes' Sebastien, 1934 |
 |
| Otto Dix, Portrait of the Journalist Silvia von Harden, 1926 |
 |
| Picasso Harlequin, 1901 |
 |
| Pierre Boucher, Volubilis, Maroc, 1937; photo-shopped? |
 |
| Victor Brauner, Hitler, 1934 |
 |
| Speaks volumes to me |
 |
| A stunning very large format photo, Ahmed Mater, North Gate, Mecca, 2012 |
