National Gallery of Victoria

National Gallery of Victoria


National Gallery of Victoria is located near Federation Square and is without any doubt a must visit for Art Lovers.

There are Fountains and art installations all around the building and it makes it a pretty artsy place altogether.

The Entrance is quite interesting as you can see in the picture. It made me feel like it was cage, but boy was it huge. Sometimes you don't mind walking into a huge cage. 

As is the case with most things in Melbourne, NGV was having a temporary display. This time it was mexican artists. Some of them were quite amazing.

Some of them are really huge and yet very detailed.

There was this one painting that I just couldn't help but notice. Quite frankly I don't get it. What's the big deal. Its just lines.

I am not a very artsy person but the paintings and sculptures here did make me realize how someone can enjoy art.
