My friend, the fashionista, spent much more time at the LOVE exhibit as it was a retrospective of the haute couture of Yves Saint Laurent. I did drop by to see the highlights.

I was visiting Montreal for a University Fine Arts Portfolio day recently. I was there for only 2 days and on my final day I decided I would walk to the train station. I obviously got lost but found myself here at the steps of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Even more fantastic was they had just opened there doors and this was the one day a month when admission was free! I had the be on a train in less then two hours but I couldn't say no to this opportunity. I'm grateful I didn't because the exhibits are incredible! Beautiful, diverse and vast! SO much to see! A worthy cultural experience indeed!

Founded in 1860 as the Art Association of Montreal by a group of Montreal art collectors and patrons, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA) was one of the first museums in North America to build up an encyclopedic collection worthy of the name. It now numbers over 41,000 works from Antiquity to today, making it unique in Canada. It comprises paintings, sculptures, graphic arts, photographs and decorative art objects displayed in four pavilions: the Jean-Noël Desmarais Pavilion (international art), the Michal and Renata Hornstein Pavilion (world cultures), the Liliane and David M. Stewart Pavilion (decorative arts and design) and the Claire and Marc Bourgie Pavilion (Quebec and Canadian art). The latter, which was inaugurated in September 2011, includes a 444-seat concert hall – Bourgie Hall – featuring an important group of Tiffany stained glass windows.
