Museum Visit At The Monmouth Museum
Museum Visit
For my extra credit assignment, I chose to go to the Monmouth Museum. I had a very insightful time and am very happy with the new experience.
Unfortunately, I was only able to stay for about an hour and a half so I was only able to really analyze a few pieces of art. There was plenty more to
see and it is too bad I could not be there for any longer. Here is what I discovered, liked, and disliked.
The I in Disguise
It is made with acrylic on canvas, made in 2013. It has beautiful patterns of color on color. Like the name suggests, it's all about mystery and disguise.
There are endless patterns with patterns inside the patterns symbolizing endless meanings and mysteries. It looks almost leopard patterned, but with
more color and brighter on the center as if a sun is shining through. The mysterious aspect to it makes it looks like some sort of secret code. I love the
mystery. The main colors used in this piece of art are orange, red, blue, and gold.
Untitled Early Painting
This was made by R Randolph in 1967. It is an oil on canvas painting of fruits, mostly apples. You can see some of the paint popping out from the
canvas, giving a more 3D perspective. There is a dullish beige background which I think is what makes the fruit more the center of attention to the
viewers. The beige does have some randomly faded in colors probably to make it look more pleasant looking. There is a good use of shadow to create
the size, depth, and general feeling that the artist is

Visit The Young At Art Museum
For this reflection paper I decided to visit the Young at Art Museum. It is located on Southwest 121st Avenue and is just south of 5
–95.(Figure 1) I
decided to go on a Friday and I think a few schools may have had the same idea. Upon first arriving I knew, almost instantly, that Young at Art was
designed with the youth in mind. Which is great reasoning for the name Young at Art, but I hadn't thought much of it before my visit. At first look
I noticed that there was much to do at Y.A.A. and I was not sure where to start so I checked out the information wall which let you know all the
different sections and styles of art they had on exhibit. As I began to walk through the first piece that caught my eye was a realistic sculpture of a
young girl constructing a puzzle. (Figure 2) At first I thought she was really just a child at the museum playing and then I realized how well the
artist captured the moment with the sculpture and I knew that I was hooked. I could not wait to experience more, so I quickly moved forward
through the exhibits, possibly a bit too fast and I decided to make extra stops while on my way back. Another amazing piece had caught my eye
named "Sweet Madness" which depicted perfect circles which were made using many different colored pill capsules. (Figure 3) I was really able to
relate with this piece and because of the feelings I received, I really enjoyed my overall experience. From the moment I arrived I could tell that the

My Visit To A Museum
On 29th May of May 2017, I had planned to visit the Dallas Art Museum. I was very excited to visit the Museum because this was my first visit to
the museum of Dallas after I had been in the United States as an international student. I am very much interested in the arts and history around the
globe. Therefore, I was very happy and excited when I knew that the visit to Dallas Art Museum was also the part of my graded college
assignment. I reached the Dallas Art Museum at 12:30 pm and I parked my car in the parking under the building of the museum where I paid twelve
dollars for the entry. I went up to the entrance gate of the museum through the stairs. Right next to the entrance gate, I saw the name of that building
was "The Nancy And Jake L. Hamon Building" as written on the wall. Just straight ahead of the building, there was a colorful painting on the wall
and on the right, visitors were enjoying the food in the chair outside the building. As I entered the building, I felt the atmosphere peaceful and calm at
that moment. I saw many visitors and security around the building so that I felt free and secure when I walked around the museum. There was a help
center on the right where staffs are having conversation with the visitors. As I walked ahead, there I saw the museum store on my left and the white
statue of "Semiramis", queen of Assyria carved with the marble few ahead of the store. When I was going through level 1, I saw the numerous

Personal Narrative: My Visit To The Tampa Museum Of Art
I visited the Tampa Museum of Art. This was my first visit to a museum and I was excited and intrigued and looking forward to seeing what was
beyond the glass doors. The art exhibitions that I was able to see were all amazing to behold. For some reason, I was expecting to walk into a huge
celestial auditorium that would have me in awe but wasn't the case. During my tour of the Tampa Museum of Art, the artist and art that stood out to me
most interestingly were Elizabeth Condon; "American Pastorale" 2016. Elizabeth Condon is an American art in 2016 who was inspired to paint art
"American Pastorale." This art catch my attention immediately has I walked through Tampa Museum of Art door. Thepainting displays interesting
colors, contrast and expression that are compelling and stands out. American Pastorale is an abstract painting which is a motivational piece that was
created using Chinese traditional painting scroll, vintage fabric, and wallpaper samples. Additional material such as acrylic, latex, and glitter and
pumice on linen was used to energize the tropical flora of the painting. The painting dimension is 59x59 in inches. The painting shows that the artist

These aspects of the artwork are noticeable immediately when viewing the artwork. My understanding of this painting is that the artist applied color
with expressive brushwork and poured paint directly on to the canvas. A variety of loud intense colors such as red, orange, blue, green, and pink was
used to create a landscape pattern. Elizabeth Condon is an artist that embraces her imagination and she believes that art is a structure and it is material.
Therefore the angle Elizabeth uses to demonstrate aspects and location in the artwork is not a mistake it is on

How To Visit To A Chrysler Museum
Visiting M.O.CA was not as fascinating as vising the Chrysler museum due to the type of art that is in the museum. Most of the art works in the
M.O.C.A were paintings, drawings, prints and a couple of installations and less of sculptures and objects. The museum was quietly small compared to
the Chrysler, so less artwork was available. When entering the museum exhibitions through the glass doors, all you see is mostly pictures. The one
drawing that caught my attention the most is called "Vegans Send Newly" by Trenton Doyle Hancock. This drawing doesn't have many hues but
mainly pink. When I first saw the drawing, I had a difficult time understanding it because there are so many objects and elements in it and the most

The use of different hues such as red, orange, and yellow directs the audience's attention to that specific location which indicates that is it one of
the important elements in the drawing. There were also a couple of installations in the museum such as "Floating Garden" and Living room by
Amanda McCavour. Both are made out of thread and were kind of pleasing to view because they were interactive and make you look around it in
all direction to get the sense of it, especial the "Living room" installation because it is designed in a 3 dimensional way so you have to view all
sides to know what it is. There was one painting that I did not understand at all and was not very revealing. It's called "ITIHS, 1999" it is a painting
and an assemblage because it has objected pasted into it such as gum and piece of paper and other objects that I couldn't identify , but it was not very
pleasing to view. I didn't enjoy it simply because there isn't anything significant that attracted my attention that was pleasing and satisfying. The area

Importance Of Visit To The Holocaust Museum
When I was in between my junior and senior year of high school, I was given the chance to travel to Washington, D.C. to participate in the National
History Day competition. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life and ignited a passion for traveling the world. When in D.C. we
all went to thousands of museums. The first day that we were there, we went to the Holocaust Museum. It was such a somber experience, I don't
think I heard a word uttered out of anyone's mouth until we reached the end of our journey. The grief is tangible in the air and feels as if it will
suffocate you if you breathe deep enough. As we exited the museum, our steps were heavy as we made our way back to the dorms we were staying in.
The next day, we trekked through all the memorials at the National Mall, never managing to find the Korean War memorial. Seeing that memorial was
especially important to me because I am a Korean–American. Nevertheless, we ran out of time and had to hop to the next museum for our timed
passes. Then we arrived at the American History Museum. When we entered, it was so crowded that it was hard to think. We attempted to trudge our
way over to an empty corner, where an African American History exhibit should have been. We later learned that it was a traveling exhibit and was
unfortunately off in a different museum at the time. As we wandered around trying to see through the masses, I saw it. A traveling exhibit about

Importance Of Visit To The Museum Of Modern Art
For my field trip, I went to the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA). If I were to bring my class here as a field trip, we could either take a subway or a
school bus. Because the MOMA is in Midtown, I think that the subway would be easier. We could have chaperones come along as well to help contain
the students in the midst of transportation. There are a bunch of different options for schools and teachers to choose from when they go to the MOMA.
There are packages that just include a MOMA visit, some others include a studio time and other include an employee to come to the classroom to teach
about certain aspects of the museum. I liked that the children were given tickets at the end of the tours to ensure that they can come and go throughout
the museum throughout the rest of the day to explore other exhibits or to revisit one they really loved.
The exhibit that I went to is called "Items: Is Fashion Modern." This really stuck out to me when we were looking at which exhibit to go to.
Obviously, fashion is a big way of how people communicate with the world and show their own style. I love learning about the different styles of
clothing and how it has evolved over the course of history, depending on what is happening in the world. The theme of this exhibit was showing
different articles of clothing from present time and also the past to showcase how we used to think about clothes and what they represented. I saw a

A Visit to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts Essay
A group of us Arts and Music students used the day on Wednesday to go into the city to visit the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. It was a cold, breezy
day so we were all bundled up in jackets and hats. As we got off the E train and walked toward the museum, its appearance was not what I expected it
to be. The museum was an elegant, beautiful building made of what looked to be marble; not the big, brick monstrosity I had expected. Once we
walked into the museum, it was even more elegant on the inside. The marble staircase had sculptures on each side leading up to the rotunda where
white Christmas lights were strung around the banister in decoration for the Christmas season. Saint Catherine by El Greco was found in the European

Picasso's painting entitled "Standing Figure" depicts a nude woman with her arms crossed behind her head. It was painted in 1908 during a key
period of invention and experimentation, as Picasso began to construct his paintings in a new way. The figure is translated into simplified, geometric
forms, reflecting Picasso's interest in the art of Africa and Oceania. Using only a few colors, he focuses the viewer's attention on the intersection of
these geometric forms. It seems as though Picasso uses the blue lines in this painting like some sort of directional device, drawing attention to the
outline of the woman's figure. As we discussed in class, the style of cubism uses multiple or contrasting vantage points. Another element of cubism is
simplifying more complicated scenes into geometric forms. Cubism rejected the inherited concept that art should copy nature, or that they should adopt
the traditional techniques of perspective, modeling, and foreshortening. They wanted instead to emphasize the two–dimensionality of the canvas.
Turner's "Fall of the Rhine at Schaffhausen", painted between 1805 and 1806, creates a sense of panic for the viewer. The water has an
overwhelming presence in this piece. Compared to the force of nature in the waterfall, the people and animals are dwarfed. One woman is depicted

My Visit to the Brooklyn Museum
During my visit to the Brooklyn Museum, I found it both intriguing and informative. The layout of the exhibition was divided into about three to
four sections. Each section of the museum represented a movement of the 60's. The themes represented were segregation of blacks and whites,
how they tried to gain equality and the changes they anticipated would happen in the future. The artwork throughout the exhibit was displayed in a
varying gradient of black and white to colors. The type of background information provided in the exhibit were captions under each artwork
specifying the artists' name, the year and time it was created and what message the artwork was trying to portray. I did find the information that was
provided to me helpful because it gave me an insight on to what the specific artwork was about and the message it was trying to convey to the me,
the viewer. One artwork I observed in this exhibit was David Hammons (American, b. 1943). The Door (Admissions Office), 1969. In this photograph
it shows a body pressed against a door trying to gain entry into an admissions office. The main character is a young African–American boy. The role
the character plays is a student trying to get admissions into a White school. During this time the U.S. Federal Government implemented school
desegregation throughout the nation in 1954. White communities did not like the idea of this and tried blocking black students from attending these

Visit The Milwaukee Public Museum
To begin, for my fieldwork project I decided to visit the Milwaukee Public Museum. The cross–cultural topic that I chose is "Tools of all Kinds" and I
focused on weapons. I decided to choose weapons because I believe they can tell us a lot about the culture of different people from different parts of
the world. The types of weapons and what they are made of represent different cultural views and even the surrounding areas of these places, because
weapons are made from what is available to people. Weapons from different places in the world can lead to inferences of that specific culture's religious
beliefs, their surrounding availability of resources, and even their traditions. While conducting my research I was highly intrigued by my findings
and I was previously unaware of the different weapons that have developed over time in different parts of the world. Some of the finesse and
delicacy in design of specific weapons was so beautiful. As I was taking pictures of different weapons and noting the type of materials used to
make these weapons, I was astonished by some of my findings. The styles of each weapon was unique in its' design and material, as well as its
purpose. Most of the weapons served a purpose in war or territorial fights. However, there were also different purposes for some of the weapons I
observed. The methodology I used in this project was simple. To collect my data, I walked around the second and third floors of the Milwaukee Public

Entering into the Louvre entrance, I can't help but feel in awe of the museum. Walking up to the counter, I smile politely, because momma always

Madonna and Child with Saint John the Baptist and an Angel, from 1518–1520. The latter one is also an oil artwork, but on panel, not on canvas.

At the bottom right corner, John the Baptist has been depicted as infant at seemingly the same age as Child Jesus. Saint John raises his arm, with a
scroll bearing the first few words of the phrase 'ECCE. AGNVS DEI QVI TOLLIT PECCATUM MONDI' (Behold the Lamb of God who takes
away the sins of the world). In this artwork, we are not able to see the whole phrase but several letters among them, but it is definitely presenting the
same words. The pleasure on Saint John's face while looking at the scroll foretells his devotion in the future as a Baptist. An angel standing next to
the Virgin looks at the Child Jesus, who looks over his shoulder. The caring face of the angel indicates Jesus's sacrifice is praised not only by the
common people, but holy figures. The background is mainly dark grey, makes the figures at the front to stand out. Personally, I think the painting is
aesthetically attractive because of the special style of the artist. Realistic are the faces of the figures, which look like real human with beauty
appearance, and their bodies. Idealistic elements include the glowing casts on the Virgin, the Child Jesus, and Saint John the Baptist, and the

Firstly, we know that the Louvre is a royal palace, the Louvre has embraced the history of France for eight centuries. It is a universal museum from

fact. The atmosphere was perfect for contemplation and thought, which is exactly what I want in a museum. I was still surprised of course; my visit to
the Art Institute of Chicago had been very different. Unlike in Huntington, Chicago's museum was packed to the brim, and the people within it
practically shouting just to be heard. It is very easy to decide which one I liked more, in terms of surroundings anyway. As I walked along, my
footsteps echoing, I could not help but feel like there was something missing. The art was perfectly fine, but there was a lack of liveliness to the
place, something that Chicago had in spades. I remember noticing that the art only had names, and no descriptions. This was something I disliked
extremely. It is nice to look at images I suppose, but I want some history. I want the time period, and a description of the artist, two things that play a
huge role in what a painting is actually about. I felt like I should just naturally understand what each piece of art was trying to describe to me, which
was an irritating feeling.

Visit The Leepa Rattner Museum
For my museum trip I chose to visit the Leepa–Rattner museum in Tarpon Springs. I have never been to an art museum before so I wasn't quite sure
what to expect. With that being said, I must admit I really found enjoyment from the distinctive emphasis that artists put within many of these images.
Furthermore, it is truly amazing how you can gaze at a work of art and begin to establish an idea of the narrative being told within the image. The
Leepa–Rattner museum is not very large, and it did not take very long to view everything that was on display. But to a great degree, I was fascinated
with the workmanship and focus of many of the paintings. The museum was very beautiful, and the architecture was very well done as well. The
building presents an image of a ship at sea. Additionally, I really valued the size of the museum, which is not huge, yet rather more personal and
relaxed. I found a few of the works strong and persuasive, and the more diminutive size keeps things in perspective.
The first painting that really drew my attention was the full sized image by Picasso called Guernica. The proportion and balance of the painting is
astounding. The scene portrayed in Guernica is a room filled with moving, shouting and anguished adults, and creatures. Also, I was told by someone at
the museum one of the more fascinating parts of the piece, and that is that it is done in monochrome. Generally, Picasso was known for his energetic

"Untitled #4" was created by Larry Bell in 1974. This artwork is found in USF Contemporary Art Museum in Tampa, Florida. It stands 84" x 42" inches
tall. This is a series of five color screen print with flocking. This piece is a screen print painting.
When I look at this work I saw a print of a nude distorted woman posing. The perception is manipulated to look like she is coming out of her body or
maybe reflecting in a spiritual state. Its silkscreen and thick pink flocking looks like it was made of glitter but I looked closer I can tell it's just an
illusion created by velvet– like material called flocking. It's 2–D art, but it's like the carnival "funhouse" mirrors, distorting the reflection image.
The median and tools are screen print. The technique used to create the artwork is a new style called "Finish Fetish", which are high glossed polish

Paranormal Activity: A Visit To The Royal Ontario Museum
Paranormal Activity Have you ever felt that spook in your house or in a building? Do you ever feel like somethings ever followed you or watched
you? Have you ever seen doors open even though nobody was there? If you haven't already guessed it these are some examples of paranormal
activity. Good morning Ms. Bozzelli and fellow classmates, today I will be talking to you about paranormal activity, how they could be found, what
they are capable of, and haunted locations. People always hear about ghosts and some maybe have witnessed one, however one common question is
how are they spotted and what gadgets are used? One tool used to hunt ghosts is a ambient temperature sensor. This is used to indicate temperature
changes and see if there are abnormal... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
When you've visited this location, have you ever felt like there was the feel of energy or an extra presence with you? If you were asking yourself
is the R.O.M haunted? The answer to that would be yes. The first owner of this museum was Charles Currelly, he worked at there for 35 years and
retired in 1946. Charles passed away in 1957, however his spirit has not left the building. The museum workers have claimed that they have seen
Charles wandering around on the main floor in a nightshirt. Also there has been a museum next door that is now closed because there was
apparently a little girl's spirit who say with the live audience when shows were going on. Ghosts have been a controversial debate for a while now
and there is no scientific proof to their existence. However many people so seem to have the belief they are out there. People have retold several
stories and personal experiences proving that ghosts are a living thing. If it is proven in the future that the existence of ghosts are not real, it could be
a good thing knowing that there is nothing harmful out after us. Although if ghosts do exist it would be cool to be able to communicate with the dead
and have their spirits in our presence. Do you believe in

My Visit To The De Young Museum
The Miriam–Webster dictionary has three definitions for the word art. The first is: something that is created with imagination and skill and that is
beautiful or that expresses important ideas or feelings. The second is: works created by artists: paintings, sculptures, etc., that are created to be
beautiful or to express important ideas or feelings. And the third is: the methods and skills used for painting, sculpting, drawing, etc. art can be
anything you want it to be. In today's society all forms of art are fully excepted and embraced by the people of the community. Although people have
their preferences, I believe there is no such thing as bad art. Like the dictionary states, art can be anything that you use your imagination to create,...

There is a large fountain across the street, and when you walk in you go up a set of stairs that leads you to a large courtyard with the beautiful
sculpture of a man called "The Thinker" right as you enter. The courtyard that is surrounded by larger pillars that are breathtaking. The outside of the
building is an off–white color which portrays a feeling of elegance and importance, it is almost like traveling to the past and going to go visit a roman
politician in his grandiose home. This is true because this particular museum is a three–quarter–scale model of the Palais de la LГ©gion d'Honneur that
is located in the city of Paris. When you enter the museum the layout is simple, all the rooms connect and you start in the beginning and follow
through to the end. There is no getting lost, I personally loved the layout of this museum because it made me feel more organized and gave me the

Visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Viewing the Asian Art Collections
The Metropolitan Museum of Art has one of the finest Asian art collections that has enlightened and strengthened my understanding in my personal
art experience. The Museum itself is an artistic architectural structure that graces the entire block on 82nd Street in Manhattan. Entering inside, I
sensed myself going back into an era, into a past where people traded ideas and learned from each other. It is a past, where I still find their works of
yesteryears vividly within my grasp, to be remembered and shared as if their reflections of works were cast for the modern devoted learner.

As I left, I felt a sense of piety, a piety that I must visit again and again. The Hall of Buddhas gave me a sense of peace: a thought of quietness to

The next corridor was an exhibit of ceramics of everyday life in the Neolithic period of the Majlayao culture (Machong phase, CA 2300–2000BC
Metropolitan Museum plaque). The pottery of this period expresses similarities in the color and shapes to the art found amongst the indigenous cultures
elsewhere in the world. On the side was another room with two guardian lions (6th dynasty 220–589). Lion statues were status symbols for great
dwellings that were placed outside of main entranceways to promote good and to stop evil from entering in (Feng Shui, Lam 38). In the room at the
Museum they guard lacquer images and woodcarvings of Buddhas. Buddha images executed in dry lacquer were highly valued by the Chinese because
of the costly time–consuming process required to produce them (Metropolitan Museum wall–plaque). Possibly the lions do serve a purpose here: to
prevent any evil beings from entering a room filled with prized lacquer Buddhas.
The Han dynasty (25–220 CE) exhibit outside in the corridor demonstrated remarkable uniformity. Common pottery such as models of houses and farm
structures, were created as funerary objects for burials. The Han period has deeply shaped and cast its roots in contemporary burial rituals. Today,

Personal Narrative: My Visit To The Holocaust Museum
Recently, our class visited the Holocaust Museum. We learned about how 80 to 100 people would be packed into a train car with no food or
water. They were taken to concentration camps where they might never see their families again. Many were killed immediately, and others were
forced to do hard labor. Although not to this extent, things like this still happen today. Every 19 seconds, someone dies because of genocide.
Sometimes, the world seems like it is cloaked in evil, but Romans 12:21 one says, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."
Even though there is a lot of evil in this world, there is a lot of God's goodness and beauty in it to. Remembering the good left in the world can help
us overcome the evil, and we should start with our own lives. When someone does something bad to me, even if it isn't a big deal, my immediate
reaction is anger. I want to get back at them, and not for any good logical reason. But that won't actually help anything, it will more likely make things
worse. Overcoming evil with good would mean forgiving the person, thinking about why they might have done it, and realizing... Show more content on

It tells us that no matter what happens, evil can be overcome with good. Ultimately, it already was when Jesus died for us on the cross. As 1
Timothy 12:1a says, "Fight the good fight of the faith." We never should give up on God's will, even if it doesn't happen in our lifetime.
Overcoming evil with good doesn't mean that we should never fight, but that we should fight for good, and all the more determinedly, because what
we are fighting for matters. My verse will remind me that when something bad happens, to rely on God to help me overcome it with good. I should

viewed the most beautiful artwork I had ever seen, observed interesting non European/North American art, was alarmed by the most disturbing works ,
explored a breath taking exhibition, and actually found work that I would actually take home with me.

This artwork was very interesting to me because it shows an overweight person gripping their buttocks with both hands. One would not think of the
meaning by just looking at the picture but after reading the title you view it differently. To me the title and the picture define a person with insecurity. I
believe this artwork was the most significant from this category because it has meaning behind it. It maybe that this is the way Julie George views
herself or the way that she sees other people viewing themselves.
I saw, studied and enjoyed looking at many pieces of art and although it was a difficult task I was able to choose one piece of artwork as the one I
would take home if given the opportunity. The artwork that I chose is a very different piece of work. The title of thepainting is En Carne made in 1987
by Carlos Alfonzo who was born in Havana, Cuba. The painting looks like a lot of clutter and I actually even thought it was an airplane before
hearing what it actually means. After hearing the story behind it I found it to be very interesting. Throughout the painting there are eyes hidden in the
cluttered art. These eyes symbolize a sign of paranoia as if people are always watching you.

artwork from different cultures and time periods. There is paintings and sculptures from Ancient Egypt, Ancient Rome and Greece. The museum is
additionally home to artwork from many different time periods including ancient Near Eastern Art, Middle Ages and Europe during the Renaissance.
The Met also has artwork from many different religions such as Christianity and Islam. Each section in the museum had a specific artwork that
attracted my attention. On the first floor of the Met Museum is the Greek and Roman Art. The Greek and Roman section has hundreds of art work
ranging from the Neolithic period to Roman Emperor Constantine. In the Greek and Roman section there is many portraits and sculptures including the
statue of Emperor Augustus, the statue of Aphrodite, and the Marble female figure. The sculptures in this section range in different shapes, sizes and
colors and are made with a variety of materials. The sculptures depict emperors, Kings, Queens, Gods and Goddesses of the time. Much of the statues
in this section are missing key parts such as arms, legs and the head due to the fact that they were damaged before being bought to the museum. The

Visit To An Art Museum
At first, I didn't want to go to the museum. That day, I was exhausted after finishing school, so going all the way to San Francisco wasn't exactly my
idea of relaxing. Thankfully, my mom insisted we go that day, since it was my dad's day off. I felt frustrated that we had to go right then, but my
mom forced us. After getting over my initial reluctance, I got butterflies in my stomach. This was only the 2nd time I'd been to an art museum, so I
wanted to make the most of it. When we first arrived, we looked around at some paintings. I visited an exclusive temporary exhibit of Edvard Munch
which included a surprising amount of paintings of naked women. Nothing caught my eye in the first few galleries, but then I stumbled on an exhibit
called "In Character" by Nam June Paik. As soon as I walked in, I got embarrassingly excited. I constantly had to stop myself from running around the
museum like a madman. All the TV sculptures and simple, childlike drawings had been just so incredible to me. The piece that I really enjoyed the
most was a sculpture called "Self–Portrait."
The culture this work represents is the Neo–Dadaist movement known as Fluxus. Fluxus was a very loosely organized group based mostly around New
York City. Like Dadaism, Fluxus artists didn't believe keeping art in museums. Unlike previous art movements, Fluxus was "anti–art", according to
George Maciunas, the founder . Fluxus was a means to break down the boundaries between art and life. The historical period Nam June's art
represents is the late 20th century, although this specific work was created in 2005, towards the end of his life. The style it represents is also Fluxus.
Although Nam June Paik "left" Fluxus, the free, limitless style of Fluxus remains in his art. "Self–Portrait" is a mixed medium sculpture. I believe the
theme of the work is to show that nothing is sacred. Without the signature, the TV would just be an old TV. This theme is very like the Fluxus
movement and shows how important Fluxus was in Nam June's life.
Nam June Paik reflects the 20th century by using television in his work, which was revolutionary in his time. Nam June Paik was a Korean–American
born in Seoul, Korea. He had to flee from Korea when he was young,

ART 101 My family and I recently visited the Orlando Museum of Art in Orlando, Florida. The museum enjoys a seemingly eclectic collection of
artifacts, sculptures, photographs, and paintings. While perusing the gallery I was fascinated by one painting in particular. The piece was called "Ante
Meridian", oil on board, c.a. 1935 by Frederick Judd Waugh(American 1861–1940). This representational painting was of a presumably north eastern
coast line where waves were battering the cliffs and rocks during a stormy day. The sky was ominous yet you don't see the rain falling. The sun appears

By his vertical placement of the cliff in the right forefront of the picture plane, he further emphasizes the illusion of space. Second, the diminishing
size of the sea, cliffs in the background, and the jetty all express depth in the overall scene. The violent cove appears to move away from us in to
the open sea. Ante Meridian is an example of atmospheric perspective. The foreground colors are bold and rich, whether it is the white wave caps
or the cliff façade, but as the scene retreats in to the distance, the sea, background rocks, and sky become bluer, paler, and less distinct. The objects
in the distance are blurrier to demonstrate this open space even more. The implied changes in the position of the thrashing waves give you the feeling
of motion. The overlapping relationship of the storm clouds to the apparent clear sky, as well as the curve of the rain clouds all imply these dark
storm clouds are moving out to the left. Waugh also gave a slight glimmer of sunlight beating down on the rocks in the background to further illustrate
the idea that the storm is moving on and the sun is breaking through. This bit of sunlight is the only vibrant color in this paining. The whole aspect of
the sea is implied motion. I believe with every short, wide brush stroke used to paint the surf, Waugh intended to imply motion. The very nature of
water is movement but he went beyond what we know and tried to convey not just motion but

factory in San Leucio. The painstaking details of the costumes are constructed of luxurious, rich fabrics such as damasks, silks, linens, and laces.
One could tell the peasant figures because they wore simple clothes and had bare feet or sandals. They are wearing muted dirty looking clothing, but
quite possibly even made out of paper. The wealthy and nobility wore regal royal colored robes, leather shoes and perhaps even a turban or
headwear. Their costumes were quilted, embroidered using gold or silver thread, embellished with silk ribbons, and tiny colored glass beads. Some

Museum Visit At The Monmouth Museum

  • 1. Museum Visit At The Monmouth Museum Museum Visit For my extra credit assignment, I chose to go to the Monmouth Museum. I had a very insightful time and am very happy with the new experience. Unfortunately, I was only able to stay for about an hour and a half so I was only able to really analyze a few pieces of art. There was plenty more to see and it is too bad I could not be there for any longer. Here is what I discovered, liked, and disliked. The I in Disguise It is made with acrylic on canvas, made in 2013. It has beautiful patterns of color on color. Like the name suggests, it's all about mystery and disguise. There are endless patterns with patterns inside the patterns symbolizing endless meanings and mysteries. It looks almost leopard patterned, but with more color and brighter on the center as if a sun is shining through. The mysterious aspect to it makes it looks like some sort of secret code. I love the mystery. The main colors used in this piece of art are orange, red, blue, and gold. Untitled Early Painting This was made by R Randolph in 1967. It is an oil on canvas painting of fruits, mostly apples. You can see some of the paint popping out from the canvas, giving a more 3D perspective. There is a dullish beige background which I think is what makes the fruit more the center of attention to the viewers. The beige does have some randomly faded in colors probably to make it look more pleasant looking. There is a good use of shadow to create the size, depth, and general feeling that the artist is ...

  • 2. Visit The Young At Art Museum For this reflection paper I decided to visit the Young at Art Museum. It is located on Southwest 121st Avenue and is just south of 5 –95.(Figure 1) I decided to go on a Friday and I think a few schools may have had the same idea. Upon first arriving I knew, almost instantly, that Young at Art was designed with the youth in mind. Which is great reasoning for the name Young at Art, but I hadn't thought much of it before my visit. At first look I noticed that there was much to do at Y.A.A. and I was not sure where to start so I checked out the information wall which let you know all the different sections and styles of art they had on exhibit. As I began to walk through the first piece that caught my eye was a realistic sculpture of a young girl constructing a puzzle. (Figure 2) At first I thought she was really just a child at the museum playing and then I realized how well the artist captured the moment with the sculpture and I knew that I was hooked. I could not wait to experience more, so I quickly moved forward through the exhibits, possibly a bit too fast and I decided to make extra stops while on my way back. Another amazing piece had caught my eye named "Sweet Madness" which depicted perfect circles which were made using many different colored pill capsules. (Figure 3) I was really able to relate with this piece and because of the feelings I received, I really enjoyed my overall experience. From the moment I arrived I could tell that the environment had a life of its ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. My Visit To A Museum On 29th May of May 2017, I had planned to visit the Dallas Art Museum. I was very excited to visit the Museum because this was my first visit to the museum of Dallas after I had been in the United States as an international student. I am very much interested in the arts and history around the globe. Therefore, I was very happy and excited when I knew that the visit to Dallas Art Museum was also the part of my graded college assignment. I reached the Dallas Art Museum at 12:30 pm and I parked my car in the parking under the building of the museum where I paid twelve dollars for the entry. I went up to the entrance gate of the museum through the stairs. Right next to the entrance gate, I saw the name of that building was "The Nancy And Jake L. Hamon Building" as written on the wall. Just straight ahead of the building, there was a colorful painting on the wall and on the right, visitors were enjoying the food in the chair outside the building. As I entered the building, I felt the atmosphere peaceful and calm at that moment. I saw many visitors and security around the building so that I felt free and secure when I walked around the museum. There was a help center on the right where staffs are having conversation with the visitors. As I walked ahead, there I saw the museum store on my left and the white statue of "Semiramis", queen of Assyria carved with the marble few ahead of the store.

This was my first visit to a museum and I was excited and intrigued and looking forward to seeing what was beyond the glass doors. The art exhibitions that I was able to see were all amazing to behold. For some reason, I was expecting to walk into a huge celestial auditorium that would have me in awe but wasn't the case. During my tour of the Tampa Museum of Art, the artist and art that stood out to me most interestingly were Elizabeth Condon; "American Pastorale" 2016. Elizabeth Condon is an American art in 2016 who was inspired to paint art "American Pastorale." This art catch my attention immediately has I walked through Tampa Museum of Art door. Thepainting displays interesting colors, contrast and expression that are compelling and stands out. American Pastorale is an abstract painting which is a motivational piece that was created using Chinese traditional painting scroll, vintage fabric, and wallpaper samples. Additional material such as acrylic, latex, and glitter and pumice on linen was used to energize the tropical flora of the painting. The painting dimension is 59x59 in inches.

These aspects of the artwork are noticeable immediately when viewing the artwork.

A variety of loud intense colors such as red, orange, blue, green, and pink was used to create a landscape pattern. Elizabeth Condon is an artist that embraces her imagination and she believes that art is a structure and it is material.

  • 5. How To Visit To A Chrysler Museum Visiting M.O.CA was not as fascinating as vising the Chrysler museum due to the type of art that is in the museum. Most of the art works in the M.O.C.A were paintings, drawings, prints and a couple of installations and less of sculptures and objects. The museum was quietly small compared to the Chrysler, so less artwork was available. When entering the museum exhibitions through the glass doors, all you see is mostly pictures. The one drawing that caught my attention the most is called "Vegans Send Newly" by Trenton Doyle Hancock. This drawing doesn't have many hues but mainly pink. When I first saw the drawing, I had a difficult time understanding it because there are so many objects and elements in it and the most obvious ones were the unappealing creatures.

The use of different hues such as red, orange, and yellow directs the audience's attention to that specific location which indicates that is it one of the important elements in the drawing. There were also a couple of installations in the museum such as "Floating Garden" and Living room by Amanda McCavour. Both are made out of thread and were kind of pleasing to view because they were interactive and make you look around it in all direction to get the sense of it, especial the "Living room" installation because it is designed in a 3 dimensional way so you have to view all sides to know what it is. There was one painting that I did not understand at all and was not very revealing. It's called "ITIHS, 1999" it is a painting and an assemblage because it has objected pasted into it such as gum and piece of paper and other objects that I couldn't identify , but it was not very pleasing to view.

  • 7. Importance Of Visit To The Holocaust Museum When I was in between my junior and senior year of high school, I was given the chance to travel to Washington, D.C. to participate in the National History Day competition. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life and ignited a passion for traveling the world. When in D.C. we all went to thousands of museums. The first day that we were there, we went to the Holocaust Museum. It was such a somber experience, I don't think I heard a word uttered out of anyone's mouth until we reached the end of our journey. The grief is tangible in the air and feels as if it will suffocate you if you breathe deep enough. As we exited the museum, our steps were heavy as we made our way back to the dorms we were staying in. The next day, we trekked through all the memorials at the National Mall, never managing to find the Korean War memorial. Seeing that memorial was especially important to me because I am a Korean–American. Nevertheless, we ran out of time and had to hop to the next museum for our timed passes. Then we arrived at the American History Museum. When we entered, it was so crowded that it was hard to think. We attempted to trudge our way over to an empty corner, where an African American History exhibit should have been. We later learned that it was a traveling exhibit and was unfortunately off in a different museum at the time. As we wandered around trying to see through the masses, I saw it.

  • 8. Importance Of Visit To The Museum Of Modern Art For my field trip, I went to the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA). If I were to bring my class here as a field trip, we could either take a subway or a school bus. Because the MOMA is in Midtown, I think that the subway would be easier. We could have chaperones come along as well to help contain the students in the midst of transportation. There are a bunch of different options for schools and teachers to choose from when they go to the MOMA. There are packages that just include a MOMA visit, some others include a studio time and other include an employee to come to the classroom to teach about certain aspects of the museum. I liked that the children were given tickets at the end of the tours to ensure that they can come and go throughout the museum throughout the rest of the day to explore other exhibits or to revisit one they really loved. The exhibit that I went to is called "Items: Is Fashion Modern." This really stuck out to me when we were looking at which exhibit to go to. Obviously, fashion is a big way of how people communicate with the world and show their own style. I love learning about the different styles of clothing and how it has evolved over the course of history, depending on what is happening in the world. The theme of this exhibit was showing different articles of clothing from present time and also the past to showcase how we used to think about clothes and what they represented.

  • 9. A Visit to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts Essay A group of us Arts and Music students used the day on Wednesday to go into the city to visit the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. It was a cold, breezy day so we were all bundled up in jackets and hats. As we got off the E train and walked toward the museum, its appearance was not what I expected it to be. The museum was an elegant, beautiful building made of what looked to be marble; not the big, brick monstrosity I had expected. Once we walked into the museum, it was even more elegant on the inside. The marble staircase had sculptures on each side leading up to the rotunda where white Christmas lights were strung around the banister in decoration for the Christmas season.

Picasso's painting entitled "Standing Figure" depicts a nude woman with her arms crossed behind her head. It was painted in 1908 during a key period of invention and experimentation, as Picasso began to construct his paintings in a new way. The figure is translated into simplified, geometric forms, reflecting Picasso's interest in the art of Africa and Oceania. Using only a few colors, he focuses the viewer's attention on the intersection of these geometric forms. It seems as though Picasso uses the blue lines in this painting like some sort of directional device, drawing attention to the outline of the woman's figure. As we discussed in class, the style of cubism uses multiple or contrasting vantage points. Another element of cubism is simplifying more complicated scenes into geometric forms. Cubism rejected the inherited concept that art should copy nature, or that they should adopt the traditional techniques of perspective, modeling, and foreshortening. They wanted instead to emphasize the two–dimensionality of the canvas. Turner's "Fall of the Rhine at Schaffhausen", painted between 1805 and 1806, creates a sense of panic for the viewer. The water has an overwhelming presence in this piece. Compared to the force of nature in the waterfall, the people and animals are dwarfed. One woman is depicted rushing to try and save her child.

  • 10. My Visit to the Brooklyn Museum During my visit to the Brooklyn Museum, I found it both intriguing and informative. The layout of the exhibition was divided into about three to four sections. Each section of the museum represented a movement of the 60's. The themes represented were segregation of blacks and whites, how they tried to gain equality and the changes they anticipated would happen in the future. The artwork throughout the exhibit was displayed in a varying gradient of black and white to colors. The type of background information provided in the exhibit were captions under each artwork specifying the artists' name, the year and time it was created and what message the artwork was trying to portray. I did find the information that was provided to me helpful because it gave me an insight on to what the specific artwork was about and the message it was trying to convey to the me, the viewer. One artwork I observed in this exhibit was David Hammons (American, b. 1943). The Door (Admissions Office), 1969. In this photograph it shows a body pressed against a door trying to gain entry into an admissions office. The main character is a young African–American boy. The role the character plays is a student trying to get admissions into a White school. During this time the U.S. Federal Government implemented school desegregation throughout the nation in 1954. White communities did not like the idea of this and tried blocking black students from attending these white schools. The photo brings out a ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. Visit The Milwaukee Public Museum To begin, for my fieldwork project I decided to visit the Milwaukee Public Museum. The cross–cultural topic that I chose is "Tools of all Kinds" and I focused on weapons. I decided to choose weapons because I believe they can tell us a lot about the culture of different people from different parts of the world. The types of weapons and what they are made of represent different cultural views and even the surrounding areas of these places, because weapons are made from what is available to people. Weapons from different places in the world can lead to inferences of that specific culture's religious beliefs, their surrounding availability of resources, and even their traditions. While conducting my research I was highly intrigued by my findings and I was previously unaware of the different weapons that have developed over time in different parts of the world. Some of the finesse and delicacy in design of specific weapons was so beautiful. As I was taking pictures of different weapons and noting the type of materials used to make these weapons, I was astonished by some of my findings. The styles of each weapon was unique in its' design and material, as well as its purpose. Most of the weapons served a purpose in war or territorial fights. However, there were also different purposes for some of the weapons I observed. The methodology I used in this project was simple.

In the world there are many beautiful things, but nothing compares to the Louvre's statues, paintings, and architecture. I am finally here, the City of Love! What am I thinking? A country girl in a city known for its fashion, food, and culture. I have officially lost my mind. Oh well, this is my one chance to dress up and feel like I fit in, because nobody here knows me. Entering into the Louvre entrance, I can't help but feel in awe of the museum. Walking up to the counter, I smile politely, because momma always taught me to be to be polite, and I happily received my museum pass. I quickly catch up to my group, out of breathe only because I've eaten too much food and not exercised in forever. Man I really should hit the gym when I get home. Stepping off the escalator I am captured by beauty. This beauty is like the dew in the morning, untouched and wonderful. I am staring at the most extraordinary statues and figures the naked eye has ever had the pleasure of seeing. No matter my vision problems, there is without a shadow of a doubt I am seeing things clearly for the first time. Before me is standing statues of warriors, death, and life.

  • 13. Museum Visit The analysis of two outstanding artworks: The Divine Shepherdess and Child with Saint John the Baptist and an Angel The art works in the art center provides a broad range of artistic visions from different period of times as well as various cultural backgrounds. Among them I choose two religious painting as my favorite: The Divine Shepherdess, from 1780–1800, which is an oil painting on canvas; and Domenico di Bartolomeo Ubaldini's Madonna and Child with Saint John the Baptist and an Angel, from 1518–1520. The latter one is also an oil artwork, but on panel, not on canvas.

At the bottom right corner, John the Baptist has been depicted as infant at seemingly the same age as Child Jesus. Saint John raises his arm, with a scroll bearing the first few words of the phrase 'ECCE. AGNVS DEI QVI TOLLIT PECCATUM MONDI' (Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world). In this artwork, we are not able to see the whole phrase but several letters among them, but it is definitely presenting the same words. The pleasure on Saint John's face while looking at the scroll foretells his devotion in the future as a Baptist. An angel standing next to the Virgin looks at the Child Jesus, who looks over his shoulder. The caring face of the angel indicates Jesus's sacrifice is praised not only by the common people, but holy figures. The background is mainly dark grey, makes the figures at the front to stand out. Personally, I think the painting is aesthetically attractive because of the special style of the artist. Realistic are the faces of the figures, which look like real human with beauty appearance, and their bodies. Idealistic elements include the glowing casts on the Virgin, the Child Jesus, and Saint John the Baptist, and the sacredness the artist tries to convey through the image. These two painting, The Divine Shepherdess and Madonna and Child with Saint John the Baptist and an Angel, have various similarities and ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The Louvre is open every day (except Tuesday) from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. the price of the ticket is €15. You can get free tickets if you are teachers of arts. I think the Louvre is crowded because it's the world's most visited museum. The Louvre has several missions, it stated in its website. We can simply divide the missions into four parts. Firstly, we know that the Louvre is a royal palace, the Louvre has embraced the history of France for eight centuries. It is a universal museum from 1793. The Mona Lisa, the Winged Victory of Samothrace, and the Venus de Milo are all in the Louvre. It defines itself as a universal museum.

I thought that it was interesting how that Bosch depicted that scene to being smaller compared to the rest of the artwork. The rest of the artwork depicted a dystopian environment.

This was not displeasing however––quite the opposite in fact. The atmosphere was perfect for contemplation and thought, which is exactly what I want in a museum. I was still surprised of course; my visit to the Art Institute of Chicago had been very different. Unlike in Huntington, Chicago's museum was packed to the brim, and the people within it practically shouting just to be heard. It is very easy to decide which one I liked more, in terms of surroundings anyway. As I walked along, my footsteps echoing, I could not help but feel like there was something missing. The art was perfectly fine, but there was a lack of liveliness to the place, something that Chicago had in spades. I remember noticing that the art only had names, and no descriptions. This was something I disliked extremely. It is nice to look at images I suppose, but I want some history. I want the time period, and a description of the artist, two things that play a huge role in what a painting is actually about. I felt like I should just naturally understand what each piece of art was trying to describe to me, which was an irritating feeling. It only took me about twenty minutes to go through the entire museum. Nothing really drew me in, except for a couple of pieces. This was entirely different from my visit to the Art Institute of Chicago. There, almost everything drew me in. All the paintings, and especially some of ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 22. Visit The Leepa Rattner Museum For my museum trip I chose to visit the Leepa–Rattner museum in Tarpon Springs. I have never been to an art museum before so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. With that being said, I must admit I really found enjoyment from the distinctive emphasis that artists put within many of these images. Furthermore, it is truly amazing how you can gaze at a work of art and begin to establish an idea of the narrative being told within the image. The Leepa–Rattner museum is not very large, and it did not take very long to view everything that was on display. But to a great degree, I was fascinated with the workmanship and focus of many of the paintings. The museum was very beautiful, and the architecture was very well done as well. The building presents an image of a ship at sea. Additionally, I really valued the size of the museum, which is not huge, yet rather more personal and relaxed. I found a few of the works strong and persuasive, and the more diminutive size keeps things in perspective. The first painting that really drew my attention was the full sized image by Picasso called Guernica. The proportion and balance of the painting is astounding. The scene portrayed in Guernica is a room filled with moving, shouting and anguished adults, and creatures. Also, I was told by someone at the museum one of the more fascinating parts of the piece, and that is that it is done in monochrome. Generally, Picasso was known for his energetic abstract and cubist works of art, so why did he ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 23. Usf Contemporary Art Museum : Visit Museum USF Contemporary Art Museum : Visit Artwork Analysis Admission: FREE, but USF parking permits are required and available in the CAM parking lot. "Untitled #4" was created by Larry Bell in 1974. This artwork is found in USF Contemporary Art Museum in Tampa, Florida. It stands 84" x 42" inches tall. This is a series of five color screen print with flocking. This piece is a screen print painting. When I look at this work I saw a print of a nude distorted woman posing. The perception is manipulated to look like she is coming out of her body or maybe reflecting in a spiritual state. Its silkscreen and thick pink flocking looks like it was made of glitter but I looked closer I can tell it's just an illusion created by velvet– like material called flocking. It's 2–D art, but it's like the carnival "funhouse" mirrors, distorting the reflection image. The median and tools are screen print. The technique used to create the artwork is a new style called "Finish Fetish", which are high glossed polish and velvet surfaces. This was a reflection of Los Angeles aesthetic of Hollywood and technology. Larry Bell used a motorized camera that can photograph at 360 degrees. By using this camera, he achieved distortion by the movement of his camera with opened shutters. This enhances the "funhouse effect" of the nude women. The silkscreen and thick pink flocking gave it a hint of the sixties psychedelic feel. Evaluating this image, the form or organization of this art is the camera ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

When you've visited this location, have you ever felt like there was the feel of energy or an extra presence with you? If you were asking yourself is the R.O.M haunted? The answer to that would be yes. The first owner of this museum was Charles Currelly, he worked at there for 35 years and retired in 1946. Charles passed away in 1957, however his spirit has not left the building. The museum workers have claimed that they have seen Charles wandering around on the main floor in a nightshirt. Also there has been a museum next door that is now closed because there was apparently a little girl's spirit who say with the live audience when shows were going on. Ghosts have been a controversial debate for a while now and there is no scientific proof to their existence. However many people so seem to have the belief they are out there. People have retold several stories and personal experiences proving that ghosts are a living thing. If it is proven in the future that the existence of ghosts are not real, it could be a good thing knowing that there is nothing harmful out after us.

And the third is: the methods and skills used for painting, sculpting, drawing, etc. art can be anything you want it to be.

The Hall of Buddhas gave me a sense of peace: a thought of quietness to gather myself, a peace that I have long forgotten or not shared. The next corridor was an exhibit of ceramics of everyday life in the Neolithic period of the Majlayao culture (Machong phase, CA 2300–2000BC Metropolitan Museum plaque). The pottery of this period expresses similarities in the color and shapes to the art found amongst the indigenous cultures elsewhere in the world. On the side was another room with two guardian lions (6th dynasty 220–589). Lion statues were status symbols for great dwellings that were placed outside of main entranceways to promote good and to stop evil from entering in (Feng Shui, Lam 38). In the room at the Museum they guard lacquer images and woodcarvings of Buddhas. Buddha images executed in dry lacquer were highly valued by the Chinese because of the costly time–consuming process required to produce them (Metropolitan Museum wall–plaque). Possibly the lions do serve a purpose here: to prevent any evil beings from entering a room filled with prized lacquer Buddhas. The Han dynasty (25–220 CE) exhibit outside in the corridor demonstrated remarkable uniformity. Common pottery such as models of houses and farm structures, were created as funerary objects for burials. The Han period has deeply shaped and cast its roots in contemporary burial rituals.

  • 28. Personal Narrative: My Visit To The Holocaust Museum Recently, our class visited the Holocaust Museum. We learned about how 80 to 100 people would be packed into a train car with no food or water. They were taken to concentration camps where they might never see their families again. Many were killed immediately, and others were forced to do hard labor. Although not to this extent, things like this still happen today. Every 19 seconds, someone dies because of genocide. Sometimes, the world seems like it is cloaked in evil, but Romans 12:21 one says, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." Even though there is a lot of evil in this world, there is a lot of God's goodness and beauty in it to. Remembering the good left in the world can help us overcome the evil, and we should start with our own lives. When someone does something bad to me, even if it isn't a big deal, my immediate reaction is anger. I want to get back at them, and not for any good logical reason.

Overcoming evil with good doesn't mean that we should never fight, but that we should fight for good, and all the more determinedly, because what we are fighting for matters.

  • 34. Visit To An Art Museum At first, I didn't want to go to the museum. That day, I was exhausted after finishing school, so going all the way to San Francisco wasn't exactly my idea of relaxing. Thankfully, my mom insisted we go that day, since it was my dad's day off. I felt frustrated that we had to go right then, but my mom forced us. After getting over my initial reluctance, I got butterflies in my stomach. This was only the 2nd time I'd been to an art museum, so I wanted to make the most of it. When we first arrived, we looked around at some paintings. I visited an exclusive temporary exhibit of Edvard Munch which included a surprising amount of paintings of naked women. Nothing caught my eye in the first few galleries, but then I stumbled on an exhibit called "In Character" by Nam June Paik. As soon as I walked in, I got embarrassingly excited. I constantly had to stop myself from running around the museum like a madman. All the TV sculptures and simple, childlike drawings had been just so incredible to me. The piece that I really enjoyed the most was a sculpture called "Self–Portrait." The culture this work represents is the Neo–Dadaist movement known as Fluxus. Fluxus was a very loosely organized group based mostly around New York City. Like Dadaism, Fluxus artists didn't believe keeping art in museums. Unlike previous art movements, Fluxus was "anti–art", according to George Maciunas, the founder . Fluxus was a means to break down the boundaries between art and life. The historical period Nam June's art represents is the late 20th century, although this specific work was created in 2005, towards the end of his life. The style it represents is also Fluxus. Although Nam June Paik "left" Fluxus, the free, limitless style of Fluxus remains in his art. "Self–Portrait" is a mixed medium sculpture. I believe the theme of the work is to show that nothing is sacred. Without the signature, the TV would just be an old TV. This theme is very like the Fluxus movement and shows how important Fluxus was in Nam June's life. Nam June Paik reflects the 20th century by using television in his work, which was revolutionary in his time. Nam June Paik was a Korean–American born in Seoul, Korea.

The museum enjoys a seemingly eclectic collection of artifacts, sculptures, photographs, and paintings. While perusing the gallery I was fascinated by one painting in particular. The piece was called "Ante Meridian", oil on board, c.a. 1935 by Frederick Judd Waugh(American 1861–1940). This representational painting was of a presumably north eastern coast line where waves were battering the cliffs and rocks during a stormy day.

By his vertical placement of the cliff in the right forefront of the picture plane, he further emphasizes the illusion of space. Second, the diminishing size of the sea, cliffs in the background, and the jetty all express depth in the overall scene. The violent cove appears to move away from us in to the open sea. Ante Meridian is an example of atmospheric perspective. The foreground colors are bold and rich, whether it is the white wave caps or the cliff faГ§ade, but as the scene retreats in to the distance, the sea, background rocks, and sky become bluer, paler, and less distinct. The objects in the distance are blurrier to demonstrate this open space even more. The implied changes in the position of the thrashing waves give you the feeling of motion. The overlapping relationship of the storm clouds to the apparent clear sky, as well as the curve of the rain clouds all imply these dark storm clouds are moving out to the left. Waugh also gave a slight glimmer of sunlight beating down on the rocks in the background to further illustrate the idea that the storm is moving on and the sun is breaking through. This bit of sunlight is the only vibrant color in this paining. The whole aspect of the sea is implied motion. I believe with every short, wide brush stroke used to paint the surf, Waugh intended to imply motion. The very nature of water is movement but he went beyond what we know and tried to convey not just motion but ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
