Thanks to modernists, ugliness pervades all aspects of art—architecture, painting, sculpture, music, and so on.

Last October, I visited the Hirshhorn Museum of modern art in Washington, DC. Just about everything on display there was pure garbage.

Another reason why for my Catholic re-awakeniing.

*~* Beauty *~* especially of old Europe.

The art.
The churches and cathedrals...
The inspiration.
The eternal and invisible.
The church bells...
The music...and voices of choirs of angels...echoing through earth.

Take a gander at the new De Young Museum in San Francisco. Brutal, cold, soul-sucking “architecture” hailed by Leftists. It honestly looks like a rusted shell of some other building. I visited with a lefty friend a few years ago (who has subsequently gone completely off the deep end...). I was literally aghast at seeing the thing. He, I thought strangely at the time, really really really liked it.
