Madonna visits art museum in Vienna
Madonna is enjoying a few days sightseeing with her family in the capital Vienna after her show here on Sunday evening.
Madonna together with daughter Lourdes and her dance crew visited the Klimt exhibition at the Vienna Leopold Museum, and the Schiele Exhibition.
Leopold museums director Tobias G. Natter and Diethard Leopold gave Madonna a tour of the exhibition and said "Madonna was very interested in the exhibition and asked lots of questions, and there was a great dialogue between us.
"Nakedness, sexuality and boundary crossing art play a large role in the works of Schiele and Klimt just like in Madonna's works."
Madonna particularly liked Klimts "life and Death" and Schiele's 'Gelber Akt', it was revealed by the museum.
