I’m partly curious as to what people’s favourite works of art are, and I’m partly hoping to discover something new. All art is welcome. Music, painting, sculpture, architecture, performance, video, litterature, plays etc. Everything goes!

While impossible to make a definitive personal list, my best attempt at a top 5 that live in my head rent free at the moment is:

  1. Danse Sacrée by Victor Ségoffin in the Musée d’Orsay in Paris.

  2. Wheat Field with Cypresses at the Haute Galline Near Eygalieres by Van Gogh

  3. The Jack Pine by Tom Thompson (Group of Seven)

  4. The G’psgolox totem pole.

  5. The Meenakshi Temple, Tamil Nadu, India.

What are your top 5?
