Like many people, I am truly not the world's most arty person. That means in relation to both creation and observation. I would struggle to tell a Rothko from a Lego but that may be his simplicity. That said I had heard lots of interesting things about Tasmania's Museum of Old and New Art. So, we decided to hit it up while we were staying with the coolest kids in Hobart, the Timsar family.

 |
| A welded intricate industrial art. |
 |
| You do need to start the right way, coffee with a view. |
 |
| A light view. |
 |
| When you enter, you go down three floors into the ground. You get given "The O" which is an audio/reading guide that can give you as much or as little info as you like, all in an iPhone. Seriously good stuff. |

 |
| Interesting |
 |
| Odd. |
 |
| Creative. |
 |
| Just plain gross. |
 |
| And depressing. |
 |
