Del Sol Valley Museum of Contemporary Art
This is my submission for the #RedditBuildChallenge Week 135: Museums of Contemporary Art!
I built this museum on the lot in Del Sol Valley where there was already a pretty sparse museum. I had a TON of fun building this, although I used far too much CC and did not even complete the entire museum in time.
There is still a basement level that I was going to use for art classes and a lecture hall- but I could not finish in time!
The goal of this museum is to bring Sims to Art and to inspire them to create their own.
My ginger haired tour guide/museum curator, Vincent, will feature in a lot of these photos. He is very serious so just ignore the crazed look on his face in most of them.
I would not have been able to make this so nice without the cc from ATS4, MLys, Slyboue, Harrie and Felix, Peacemaker and littledica. SO grateful for these creators. Working on this museum has really inspired me to start making my own cc packs!
It is not in the gallery at the moment because I am still unfinished honestly, and would like to add the basement level and cafe before uploading. I will post a list of cc here when I do. I will also try to make a basegame version though it might take me a while to make it happen!
DSV MCA is wheelchair-accessible, with elevator service to all floors and single-user restrooms on the basement and 3rd floor levels. Candy broke her leg in a bar fight.
Now we are in the 2nd floor Gallery which is dedicated to paintings, prints and ceramic arts.
OOOOOH AHHH.
I dont know why, but sims really like to read in art museums.
Never fear, baby and family nursing/changing rooms are here. Never deal with your infant or toddler in public again, you can whisk them away to the cozy family rooms that are located on the 2nd and basement levels.
The best photo I could manage of the inside of family bathrooms, but believe me, there is a bathroom area for mom/dad on the other side of that wall. And a comfy sofa riiight there.
You have made it to the 3rd floor galleries! Hoorah. This is an exciting place to be. The 3rd floor is dedicated to installation art and sculpture. Enter if you dare.
More reading.
At least he’s looking at the artwork!
ahem.
cough.
Thinking and thinking.
Out of this World
Summer Fun anyone?
This is one of my fave pieces in the museum. Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Mirror Room (my sims version of it)
Vincent is forever changed.
Rooftop access is limited to members of the museum, but if you are one, you can come help finish these murals anytime. Or start one of your own.

Today's photo with the most hits: this image by Laurie Simmons, from her Painted Bodies series. I saw it in a marvellous exhibition in the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago.

This is the special exhibit currently at the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego about an artist I knew nothing about - Niki De Saint Phalle who made assemblage, dinosaurs and feminist art ("Nanas" series) ten years ahead of the curve as well as shot her paintings with guns and canons full of paint ("Tir" series).
... And she was a smokin' hottie on the pages of Vogue in 1968.
photographed by Bert Stern, Vogue, April 15, 1968
"Nanas" - a big woman with a small security guard. My own awkward camera phone shots.
