I like the mix of old and new in this room. It makes it so that the veiwer never knows what object is around the next corner. It feels like a room out of "Alice in Wonderland." I really enjoyed it here.

tenuous connections, poorly arranged, difficult to see and appreciate, poorly done.

I think it's absolutely fantastic! The room is so serene & yet invigorating at the same time. The juxtaposition of cultures stimulates one's brain to think differently & see connections.

The artwork in this museum is very interesting and different all around. Each exhibit has something different to offer...although some are a little strange...

It contains both the modern and the old, as well as art from as far as Egypt to as close as New York, showing that art is both universal and timeless. Bravo.

reminded me of the BBC radio 4 programme, "a history of the world in a 100 objects". Disparate and remote but showing connections with ideas and thinking. A wonderfullly quirky room!
