There is THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, GUNMA in the park.
その公園の中に、群馬県立近代美術館がある。

This museum is composed of cubic flame of 1.2m grid.

In the Inside, it is seen the square grids in places. 
内部では、ところかしこに正方形グリッドがみられた。







I looked finally because it had been in the middle of remodeling when I had gone there 3 years before.
3年前もこの美術館を見に行ったけど、ちょうど改装中だったのでやっと見れた。

This time was my object of the exhibition, "SIRAI ANIMA et PERSONA" in there.
今回は、ここで開催している「建築家 白井晟一 精神と空間」展が目的。

It was worth seeing because of a lot of plans and photographs. 
たっぷり図面や写真があって見応えありました。

I didn't know can enter from Takasaki City Museum because I went haphazard. I could see thank to an Alfons Maria Mucha exhibition.
いきあたりばったりだったので高崎市美術館から入館できることを知らず、市民美術館でミュシャ展が開催していたおかげで見れました。

So interesting Marie!!... Wow... I really want to know more about Japanese modern art, but in here I can only find information about clasic art. I like clasic art too, but I miss the "new" visions of Japanese people. Now I know museums I should visit if someday I go to Japan.
By the way, congratulations about your photos. You have really good taste taking them. (^_^)

Thanks, Maria!! I see... I will tell Japanese art possible. But, Japanese museums almost can't take a photo in the inside. That's pity.
And my camera can't take a photo well at dark space. I wanted to pick up more. Thank you.

By the way... What model is your camera??... I use Canon EOS 20D (not for my blog, I use a little Sony one). But your pictures have a really good colour quality.. I wonder which cam is it... (^_^)

My camera is RICHO R5. I bought it 5 years ago. So, I always adjust It's ISO and exposure. But I used often Photoshop when I didn't like my photos. Then, I changed Contrast and tone by Photoshop. After all a compact digital camera of 5 years age have the limits of it's ability. Of course, compact digital cameras are better function than mine recently. So, I want new one.

If you want to adjust tone by EOS 20D, I recommend you to add a color filter. A yellow filter will change as if a good old photo. A digital single-lens reflex is wider expression than a compact degital camera. I envy you because I have only a non digital SLR and an old digital camera.
