Kelvingrove's Expressions
One of the most visited museums in the UK, Glasgow's Kelvingrove Museum is a place in which I would have loves to spend many hours. Unfortunately, I was on my one-day Charles Rennie Mackintosh whirlwind self-imposed tour but en route to and from Kelvingrove's Mackintosh Gallery I enjoyed the magnificent main hall and these floating heads, part of a redesign of the museum.The museum's web site says, "[the] concept for the heads was to create an installation that encapsulates the word expression, the theme chosen by Glasgow Museum's for one half of the museum. Like a release of balloons, the heads bring lightness and humour to a grand building, lifting visitors heads and acting as a draw to the upstairs galleries... It was inspired by the varied collection of marble busts at the museum, and the heads are a playful homage to Victorian sculpture galleries. "
