May 2023 - Toronto ON
I went to see a new exhibit at The Bata Museum, In Bloom. Check out the website, they offer virtual tours.
Click on Bata Shoe Museum in the labels/tags below this post to see other exhibits I've seen.
The Bata Shoe Museum regularly displays over a thousand shoes and related artefacts, chosen from a collection of nearly 15 000 objects, in architect Raymond Moriyama’s iconic, award-winning building. The BSM celebrates the style, development and function of footwear across four impressive galleries, with displays ranging from Chinese bound-foot shoes and ancient Egyptian sandals to chestnut-crushing clogs and glamorous platforms. Over 4,500 years of history are reflected in our permanent exhibition, All About Shoes while our three other galleries feature changing exhibitions – so there’s always something new to see.
Excellent shots! I have never been to this museum.
ReplyDeleteWhat an absolutely amazing museum. Some of those shoes looked priceless, while some, like the tulip and cypress looked really well worn. Thanks for sharing these awesome photos.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful, but those shoes! WOW!
