Riverine reflections

Visited the Frank Gehry-designed Weisman Art Museum this morning. It's perched next to the bridge connecting the two parts of the University of Minnesota, the Mississippi winding below. Here's part of Maya Lin's lovely "Silver River - Mississippi" of 2007, a view of the river itself, with Canadian geese flying southward, and two of the museum, one from partway across the red and yellow bridge (notice its colors reflected in the museum, and the icicles below!), one through frost from the bridge's covered walkway.
