Modernism Art Exhibit at the Corcoran

FONDUE
I went to the Modernism Art Exhibit at the Corcoran last night. This was a big opening for the Corcoran art gallery. These opening are always really nice. Everyone was dressed up all fancy like in nice clothes. Great food and open bar. But my favorite by fare was the Fondue. Yes you heard it right Fondue. They had all of the free Fondue you could eat. I know I should be talking about art here but the Fondue was so good. I dipped the following in chocolate, caramel and even cream

Strawberries
Bananas
Marshmallows
Doughnut holes
Apples
Short cake
Chocolate cookies

Was there more to dip into chocolate yes but that was about all I could eat. i think I downed 2000 calories or more.

THE ART
As for the art I really liked the adding of movies. They played a bunch of films strips of the 1930s from different countries. These films were spread around different rooms as you walk through them. But some of the art did not move me that much. I love to be moved by art. To look at it and have it move something inside of me. Not many of the pieces i saw last night did this. Maybe I was thinking about the god food to much to get into the art. The reason we were all there :-)
