Nice, France. Overlaying the color of the Nice sea with International Klein Blue, and I recognize how Japanese people are perceived by foreigners.
This museum is in Nice, France near the coast. Museum is modern building and having many artworks. There are many contemporary arts of object items that is difficult to understand, but I stimulated my brain.
When I entered this museum, I went at reception to purchase the ticket. One lady at reception told me, “this museum is free-admission”. Therefore I have walked around exhibition rooms, then gotten out for lunch and come back to the museum. When I re-entered the museum, I have just gone through the reception, without saying anythingvs since I have already recognized that this museum is free admission.
The lady at reception has just called me and said “Wait, you are Japanese aren’t you? Japanese people will say something when entering normally, you are special Japanese?” I strongly remember this conversation addition to the museum itself.
There are many artworks by “Yves Klein” based on “International Klein Blue”. At the roof on the top of the building, I could see old town street with scenic view in Nice and satisfied with a sense of fulfillment.
There are several famous museums in Nice, however, if you have a time to visit only one museum, I strongly recommend this museum. I feel that this museum is like the “Museu Colecgao Bernardo”, in Lisbon Portugal.
Visited in 2012.
