   Art Museums/Galleries To Visit

Art galleries around the world afford audiences a preview or view of culture past and present. They are curated in ways that educate, inspire and intrigue their audience.

 People visit these museum galleries for so many reasons, mostly from curiosity and interest to learn more about culture and a subject matter.

I love visiting art galleries and discovering new Artist and the Inspiration behind their artwork, but museum galleries are another art form in itself.

I have my works in a couple of galleries here in Johannesburg, but my blog today is about 10 museum art galleries, that I think inspires, fascinates and intrigues us all.

They are irresistible, I  have visited some of these museums and I know people, who have been to all of them several times over.

I hope to visit some of them in the near future, but one can still view the art in them through the internet.

So here are my most irresistible museum art galleries to visit....
