[MOC] Gallery of Modern Art

[cimddwc]

Hello everyone,

something a little bit different for a change, especially architecturally:

A modern, artistic building that grows from the ruins of an old one... topped with an over-the-top golden sculpture.

An overview of the pieces of art found in the gallery. A few notes:

Top row: The bee is from a Unikitty set, as well as the piggy next to it that didn't make it into the gallery after all. The ugly dark red figure is a Bionicle "minifigure", the ice sculpture from a City advent calendar.

Second row: The orange thing is mostly from a Moana set, the blue disc from the Dimensions game.

Third row: That silver thing is a Ninjago spinner thing. A brick separator was kinda mandatory. :) The gold sculpture is from an old reverse-engineering contest, and the white thing from Nexo Knights.

Bottom row: Left is a plate from the German footballers CMF.

The floors:

hmm, nice and quite interesting. Like an architect putting a modern building between old buildings. But in real life it doesn't alway work that well.

An unexpected and interesting build. I like how you're resuing minibuilds from pretty much everywhere for the pieces of art.

Would like to see how this build looks inside your city. :)

[Mestari]

Yes, interesting and unexpected are the words that come to mind :)

In real life I am not a fun of such buildings. So, although this is well executed (as always in your case), I can't force myself to like it..

Well, for now it looks just like this:

The gap will be filled some time in the future with a more traditional house, about as tall as the yellow bow.

Unusual but fantastic look building!

Very original!

Very unusual building. At first I was a bit doubtful but I think you can make it work very nicely in your layout. The first thing it reminded me is of U2's Popmart tour. Flamboyant, really different from all their other stuff but brilliant! It's wonderful; I especially like the colour strips between the floors, they really make it pop.

I just can't help but think of The Daily Planet when I see the ornamentation crowning this creation.

It is very interesting and creative building. Good Job!

Excellent build!! I like the idea of it being built inside the remains of an older building and the display pieces are great!! 

Nice work!!
