Ok, so I guess it's not exactly that fun when I have a cold and I still don't want to waste my educational trip up to Seattle....Battling with headache and a running nose while trying not to disturb other visitors in Seattle Art Museum surely wasn't easy! But I had to do it anyway.
So the 1st day in Seattle is to go visit Seattle Art Museum.
http://www.seattleartmuseum.org/
I came here for the Luminous exhibition on Asian art at the 3rd floor, where they are a lot of Buddha carvings and torsos of Buddha. There are some other Japanese screens painted with gold or made by fabrics, some displays were old Japanese daily clothing from poets back in that time era. It is interesting to see how the museum arranges different exhibitions at the same floor, how they changed the color of the paint on the wall to differentiate each exhibition, and how they occasionally don't have the light hit on the displayed item directly.
The 2nd floor has more European paintings, the 1st floor is mostly modern installation art.
