mixed reviews

I attended a party at the Fort Wayne Museum of Art with friends this evening and it was fun as usual. However I came away with very mixed feelings about one of the major exhibits. Considering the subjects of the paintings and sculptures by artist Robert Williams, I suspect he would be please with mixed feelings. His work was, to put it mildly, bizarre. Weird monsters coexhist with puppets, pets and ordinary looking people. His technique is excellent; he's obviously a very skilled artist, but his subject matter was so very strange that after a whole room full of his works I was just tired of looking. On the other hand, an exhibit sponsored by AWS displayed original works by several well known artists including Pocasso and Warhol who overcame learning disabilities. There were some truly beautiful pieces in that display. Do go see the current exhibits ar FWMoA' just don't take Mr. William's work too seriously.
