| The Gallery of Art Prague |
One of my favorite artists is Salvador Dalí. There were exhibits in Olomouc and Prague that I went and viewed. For those that don't know Dalí's artwork is very unique, he is a surrealist painter. At the Gallery of Art in Prague I saw one of his more popular pieces The Persistence of Memory. This was a very exciting moment for me. Also while I was the gallery in Prague there was an Andy Warhol exhibit. Warhol is pop art artist. He his well-known for his Campbell's Soup Cans and Marilyn Monroe prints.

While visiting London I went to the Tate Modern and the National Gallery. The National Gallery contained works from the 13th Century through the 19th Century. At this gallery I was able to see paintings of yet another one of my favorite artist, Vincent Van Gogh. Van Gogh is known for painting sunflowers and a variety of landscapes. They had several of his paintings there (I made sure to take a picture of every single one).

The Tate Modern was by far my favorite museum and place in London. I was so excited by all of the art work I even teared up. There was wonderful works of art by artist I knew and pieces of art by artist I had never heard of. I was particularly excited to see and take pictures with several Picassos and another piece by Salvador Dalí.

There are so many more I could talk about and show pictures of but these are some of my favorites I saw. I can't wait to go to more art museums!
