I Am Not Me, The Horse Iis Not Mine, 2008, William Kentridge, Galpão GalleryInhotim, a contemporary art complex with 22 galleries and dozens of sculptures among 1 million sq. meters of botanic gardens, is world-class, alone justifying a visit to Minas Gerais.  I returned, as a birthday present, on a free Wednesday, when there are more people interacting with the art.  [please hover over images for captions]


About Ben

Ben Batchelder has traveled some of the world's most remote roads. Nothing in his background, from a degree in Visual & Environmental Studies at Harvard to an MBA from Wharton, adequately prepared him for the experiences. Yet he persists, for through such journeys life unfolds. Having published four books that map the inner and exterior geographies of meaningful travel, he is a mountain man in Minas Gerais, Brazil who comes down to the sea at Miami Beach, Florida. His second travel yarn, To Belém & Back, received a starred review from Publishers Weekly. For more, visit www.benbatchelder.com.
