American art exhibition at the Louvre

If you live in Europe, you surely saw a lot of exhibition about the European history or European artists’ works. We could say, European people know a lot about the European history and culture. But we don’t know too much about the American history and culture, because the TV doesn’t show us the real masters’ works.

Well, the American art finally arrived to Europe, to the city of love and romance, the capital of Hungary, Paris! The exhibition is opened between 19 January 2013 and 22 April 2013 in one of the most popular and Paris’ greatest museum, the Louvre. The Louvre works on the exhibition with American partner museums, the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bertonville, Arkansas, the High Museum of Art in Atlanta and the Terra Foundation for American Art. Their goal is to show the American culture and history to European people, so we can know more about America, than what we saw in TV.

The spring in Paris is the most beautiful view. Sun is shining, people are happy for the lovely weather. The Eiffel Tower sparkles brightly. And the most famous museum of the city, the Louvre waits for the visitors with an interesting exhibition. It would be an unforgettable experience, so do not miss it! Have a great time!
