Welcome 2012...


I know, past few weeks there has hardly been any updates here. But December is always an extremely busy month for me. The paucity of time, combined with renewed interest in Art History, especially Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, leaves less time for this site! So join me at my website on the The Art Institute of Chicago..

December is an extremely busy month for me. I hardly get any time to blog, and even less time to venture out with my camera, exploring places and documenting public art. So, off late, I have been reviving my blog on the Art Institute of Chicago.. which, apart from having a world class art-collection, is more of like an academic institution for learning art history.
Here are some of the updates..
