What a fall for art in the US! I've previously blogged about finding Michelangelo in New York and Ft. Worth as well as Caravaggio in Chicago. Well, now add Minneapolis to your list of cities to visit this fall.

Personally, I love Minneapolis -- the sculpture garden, the Minnesota Orchestra, the downtown Dayton's (now Macy's) -- Minneapolis is a fabulous city. And this fall there's one more reason to love Minneapolis: the Minneapolis Institute of Arts is host The Louvre and the Masterpiece, a special exhibit. Featuring works by greats including Georges de La Tour, Johannes Vermeer, Leonardo da Vinci, and Michelangelo amongst others, the exhibit explores one of art's enduring questions: why is this piece better than that one?

For more about the exhibit and a fabulous free offer, check out my home blog:
