Museum of Bad Art, USA
From series “Strange, Weird and Unusual Museums Amusing its Visitors”Year: 1993.
Travelers who are interested in contemporary art can visit the original art museum located in the American city of Dedem. In the Museum of Poor Art, the collection of unique works is presented, each of which can at least be described as strange. The first branch of the museum in Dedem was opened in 1993, when its founder, the antiques dealer Skott Wilson, had the rather large collection of paintings.
He bought the pictures on the usual flea markets. The museum founder chose the most curious and often strange pictures he has ever seen. Later, the museum collection became larger, so it was decided to open a branch of the museum in Sommerville. A few years ago the third branch of the museum was opened in Brookline. Today, the Museum of Poor Art is a true landmark of the world, whose collection has inspired millions of painters worldwide.
