What art exhibition has disappointed you?

I went to a metallic art exhibition yesterday. It had potential, but the work was simply not there. Here are two of the better pieces.

I visited an Edvard Munch (Norwegian painter) exhibition recently, and my impression was "These paintings/drawings are a result of psychopathology, not talent."

@helenS Somewhat glum, obsessed with illness and death. Some appear unfinished. Yes, you would have to be in the mood for them!

@peterlee I was there with a friend of mine, and he found the paintings and drawings deeply depressing. But not for me: they left me totally cold. I just felt this wasn't for me.

@helenS So what did you do afterwards to lighten up.

After yesterdays disappointment I went for a coffee in one of my favorite dives.

@peterlee We went to a coffee shop too, afterwards. I was a bit worried about my friend because he looked depressed. I tried to cheer him up, successfully.
