MCA reflection

We went to MCA museum last week. That is a nice and huge building build on Chicago street. It is a contemporary art museum. We had see many interesting things over there, such as painting, architecture and photography. Many art works were after 1960. The most memorable for me is IAIN BAXTER . Artist is Emissions, this art work is about animals. The artist put animal specimens for people to enjoy. It was very interesting. Many art works from this museum I see were just from our life. Also they sold many interesting small gift at gift shop. It is a nice and interesting place for visit. I will go back again in the future!
