One evening, I had the opportunity to get out shooting with an up and coming young photographer. On the top of our list of locations to shoot was the Weisman Art Museum on the University of Minnesota Campus.
Housed in a striking stainless steel and brick building designed by architect Frank Gehry, the Weisman Art Museum offers an educational and friendly museum experience. The museum's collection features early 20th century American artists such as Georgia O'Keeffe and Marsden Hartley, as well as a diverse selection of contemporary art. A teaching museum for the University of Minnesota and the community, the Weisman provides a fresh, engaging arts experience through an array of programs and a changing schedule of exhibitions.
On our way out to the location it was all cloudy and gray with no interesting light, and then the sun broke out. Awesome!!!!
