Fantastic Art museum, Slovak National galley showed had a great Ottoman empire temporary exhibit followed by three floors of Slovak artists. The early 1900s period stood out the most with artists trying to create a national identity and be apart of the modern art movement of their time.

The museum of fine arts in Budapest had many interesting permanent exhibits. The first and second floor were all European paintings and art from 1300-1800s. A lot of Italian renaissance and religious paints. Most of these were well known artists you’d learn about in Art Class. They were mixed in with a few sculptors and carvers who made artifacts for their daily religious life. But on the third floor it was all Hungarian painters. Most of the Basque period. It was fascinating to see the differences especially when they depicted the crucifixion. Their depiction of Christ ( the last three pictures illustrate this point better ) looked slightly different, more reflective of the common look of a Slavic person rather than a Mediterranean phenotype. Lighter skin, rounder face, more prominent nose. As an American only ever seeing the Italian painters it was very interesting to see this perspective.

The temporary exhibit was about Agnes Denes. Wheatfield — A Confrontation, is one of her most famous works. Grew two acres of wheat in manhattan in 1982. She is quoted as saying “My decision to plant a wheatfield in Manhattan, instead of designing just another public sculpture, grew out of the longstanding concern and need to call attention to our misplaced priorities and deteriorating human values. Manhattan is the richest, most professional, most congested and, without a doubt, most fascinating island in the world. To attempt to plant, sustain and harvest two acres of wheat here, wasting valuable real estate and obstructing the ‘machinery’ by going against the system, was an effrontery that made it the powerful paradox I had sought for the calling to account.”

So, if you find yourself in Budapest, check out their art museum. Well worth the money

Prešov Slovakia, where to start? It’s a country nestled in Central Europe that has been influenced by centuries of conquests, political instability, and changing regimes. A hardy mountain shepherd culture with a bright vibrant national identity. Getting to meet up with my friends to see this country has been probably my favorite traveling experience.

For a country in the cold Eastern European climate they sure love reggae music. Prešov has an incredible music scene and art.

During my stay I got to :
🇸🇰 Hike the Tatras
🇸🇰 Attend a Protest
🇸🇰 Go to a Reggae Show
🇸🇰 Jam in a Cold War bunker retrofitted to be a recording studio
🇸🇰 have garlic soup, my new favorite soup
🇸🇰 have many Slovak and Czech pilsners
🇸🇰 Visit a communist statue

For those who are looking a unquie culture and beautiful cities visit the east part of this country. Thank you to my Slovak friends for showing me around. This was truly an amazing experience I hope to carry with me forever.

Nech žije Slovensko Republika ! 🇸🇰

Final photos of Poznan. What a lovely city, great people, and fantastic food. As I sit on the train heading southbound towards Krakow I am reminded of the beauty of the people and city. Friendly folks willing to answer questions to a lost American and recommend certain features of their city. Nothing but kindness I’ve witnesses here. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a city to travel to. One which is seldomly visited by Yankees. The zloty goes a long way but so does a dozen hearty piergoies and a bowl of bigos.

Solo traveling teaches a person how to grow confidence naturally through experience. Every trip there is always a whole list of problems and challenges that need to be addressed. Solving them requires you to grow in someway to think on your feet.

The mix of architectural styles in Poznan reflect the years of different influences on the city. Brutalist apartment buildings, Cathedrals, and Giovanni Battista di Quadro‘s Italian renaissance style created such a unique atmosphere.
