Sunday of the Museums

It's Berlin art autumn these days, and even though it was one of the last sunny days for quite a while, I went to see a few exhibitons and museums. The "New Museum" - destroyed during WW II and under reconstruction now - opened for the public for only three days before the official opening in 2009, it's done beautifully! They had an exhibition of photos of the workers - what a wonderful idea!
The Nolde Museum close to Gendarmenmarkt opened up with an exhibition of pictures on Berlin night life in 1911. And finally I went to the Brice Marden restrospective in Hamburger Bahnhof, the Berlin musueum of modern art in a former railway station. I liked his last paintings best.
In this museum, I found Sarah Wiener's highly acclaimed restaurant, and decided I'll have to go there to try the delicious food. One of these days.
Yesterday it was autumn already, but still bright and warm, so everybody just went outside to soak up the last sunrays. Today it's grey and cold and rainy, perfect to stay at home, do some cleaning and sorting and in the evening cuddle up on the coach to read.
It's Alex's birthday today, I sent him greetings, and promised we'll celebrate next week when I'm back in Stuttgart. And now - off to some exercises at home to help my shoulder healing.
