Cuenca, Part 3: Abstract Art Museum (really the last museo)

My claim that Guggenheim was our last museo was premature, and I'm not sure how I could forget Cuenca's Abstract Art Museum http://www.spain.info/en/conoce/museo/cuenca/museo_de_arte_abstracto_espanol.html It's all the more enjoyable knowing that you...and the room...and the art are all perched perilously over the gorge in a hanging house. The views out over the gorge are spectacular (is that really the moon in #4?) but it says something that the art still managed to sway us not to just wander from window to window but to really spend some a good couple hours with the art. Chillida, Tapies, Saura, and so many more. Nate loved the Cocktail Party, natch. Definitely worth a visit.
