Venus of the rags

"Classical art meets second hand junk" was write in a newspaper on 18th of May, the first day that we were allowed to view the main sculpture of the Arte Povera movement from the end of 60's and 70's at the Tate Modern. Venus of the Rugs, by Michelangelo Pistoletto. Today, finally, I have been there and I fell in love. I don't know why, but I could spend hours just looking at her and the mountain of vintage clothes in front of her. 

Beautiful.
