Arte Genova

Lucky Anna is home from school this week, school is closed for the Settimana Bianca, ski holiday break that Sarah had 2 weeks ago. Having the girls in different schools with completely different breaks have prevented us from taking our annual ski holiday. 

Yesterday, while much of the East Coast of the United States was under a blanket of snow, the sun was shining on the Italian Riviera. Anna and I woke up early and set off for Genoa to take in ArteGenova 2009 at the Fiera. Click on the the slideshow above. A friend of mine gave  me an invite to the show, she had a few pieces of her work on display. I must say, the show was much better than I anticipated and Anna actually enjoyed looking at modern art. Well. The poop in the toilet as living art was a bit over the top, but the rest of the show was quite good and at a high standard. Actually, I would even goes as far to say, there were many museum quality pieces up for grabs.

Otherwise, having Anna home presents the challenge of what to do all day for the rest of the week.  First things first. Smart card is out of the digital box, meaning no TV signal. At the moment, she is doing a homework project with a friend, later we are off again for Genoa and Anna's weekly drumming lesson. Tomorrow... who knows?

Ciao!
