The Polo Mint Adventures Part 4: the National Gallery of Denmark

Bonjour Art Lovers of the World!

I have just come from back from Copenhagen where the Polo Mint Adventures continued.

To recap -- a Polo Mint is a small English sweet (very similiar to a Life Saver).

Here is one:

I visit Galleries and Museums, place a Polo Mint on or near an exhibit, take a photo of it, and then move on before I get stopped and/or thrown out of the place.

It is very much 'Hit'n'Run photography.

The photos below are from the Polo Mint's recent visit to the National Gallery of Denmark in Copengaen. Because of pressing social commitments (in other words I spent too long in a bar at lunchtime) I only had time to look at the Modern Art section.

More Danish Polo Mint Adventures -- at the Louisiana Museum of modern Art and the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek -- will come later.

Thank you. It's more likely to be Guinness shoot, but we will shoot nevertheless.

Alas Suus, I don't think this will happen. My daughter (who will be with me) has made it quite clear that i) she will disown me if I attempt Polo-Minting there; ii) I am seriously likely to get arrested, and, if I do; iii) she will tell the authorities that I am mad anad should be locked up. Such devotion! If I don't( make it to O'Reilley's next Thursday at 16.30 you will know why.
