Wilberforce Museum Visit
I visited the National Afro–American Museum & Cultural Center in Wilberforce, OH and inside this
museum there are four different exhibits. After walking around for a while I came across this exhibit
that talks about the History of Wilberforce University. It was very interesting to hear about the area
from back then until now. It was very different back then but as laws began to get passed it changed.
The exhibit on the History of Wilberforce University explores the start of Wilberforce university, the
making of Central State University, and the uprising of Wilberforce University. Wilberforce
University was found near Xenia, OH in 1856 by the Methodist Episcopal Church. It was the first
university were African Americans could get an education, but before ... Show more content on

Later on, this department became Central State University also know as the mother to Wilberforce
University. Central State continued to be connected to Wilberforce University until 1947 when it
was legally declared separated. Charles H. Wesley was the first president of Central State University
and as time went by the university began to grow. It developed four colleges: Education, Science
and Engineering, Business, and Humanities. More and more things began to get added like new
academic programs and new residence halls. Wilberforce University is now a four–year university
that offers students more than twenty–degree programs. Wilberforce University also gives students
and opportunity to do a dual degree program. Still to this day Wilberforce University stands true to
their core values that they have set for their students. The faculty and staff make sure that the
students get the education that they need and that they paid for. If you want to attend a smaller sized
campus Wilberforce University is the place. You will receive more attention from your professor and

The crèche bodies are made from hemp and wire, the heads are molded out of terracotta with eyes
made of glass, and the hands and feet are carved out of wood. The artists would then use oil paints
to achieve the most realistic expressions and details on the figurines. The figures are flexible so they
can be positioned within the setting. Many of the figures in the crèche wear their original silk
garments made in the royal silk 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 women were clothed in lace petticoats, elaborate bustles, and silk–lined
dresses with metallic lace over–skirt. The crèche figurines are authentically dressed in details that

My Visit To The Holocaust Memorial Museum
As we roamed through Washington we saw this museum it is called Holocaust Memorial Museum.
We went inside and saw these two big clear doors and we walked inside it was pitch dark. Their was
a path that took us to a room and a video was playin. That video was talking about a boy named
Daniel that has survived the holocaust. It was a really depressing video that talked about his way of

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 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. According to the annotate of The Divine Shepherdess, the theme source comes from the

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

How To Visit To A Metropolitan Museum

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

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.
Secondly, the Louvre is universal both in wealth of its collections and the diversity of its visitors.
There are lots of visitors from all over the world. From its data in 2012, we know that 69% visitors

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.

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

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. Turner

My Visit At The Huntington Museum Of Art
The first thing I noticed at the Huntington Museum of Art was how quiet and empty it was. 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,

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.

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

This artwork was very interesting to me because it shows an overweight person gripping their

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 the painting 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.

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

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

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

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

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. The painting 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

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

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

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 bunch of clothes

On the weekend that I visited to the Star of the Republic Museum, Washington–on–the–Brazos was

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 emotion

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

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

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

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 never give up

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 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

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.

Wilberforce Museum Visit

  • 1. Wilberforce Museum Visit I visited the National Afro–American Museum & Cultural Center in Wilberforce, OH and inside this museum there are four different exhibits. After walking around for a while I came across this exhibit that talks about the History of Wilberforce University. It was very interesting to hear about the area from back then until now. It was very different back then but as laws began to get passed it changed. The exhibit on the History of Wilberforce University explores the start of Wilberforce university, the making of Central State University, and the uprising of Wilberforce University. Wilberforce University was found near Xenia, OH in 1856 by the Methodist Episcopal Church. It was the first university were African Americans could get an education, but before ...

Central State continued to be connected to Wilberforce University until 1947 when it was legally declared separated. Charles H. Wesley was the first president of Central State University and as time went by the university began to grow. It developed four colleges: Education, Science and Engineering, Business, and Humanities. More and more things began to get added like new academic programs and new residence halls. Wilberforce University is now a four–year university that offers students more than twenty–degree programs. Wilberforce University also gives students and opportunity to do a dual degree program. Still to this day Wilberforce University stands true to their core values that they have set for their students. The faculty and staff make sure that the students get the education that they need and that they paid for. If you want to attend a smaller sized campus Wilberforce University is the place.

There are two bronze lions, created by Edward Kerneys wearing evergreen wreaths for the Holidays that flank the main entrance on Michigan Avenue. It is the second largest museum in the United States. The Art Institute of Chicago's collection contains more than 260,000 works of art from cultures around the world. The permanent collection is so extensive that it would take one several hours to explore the whole thing. The museum is most noted for its collection of Impressionist, Post–Impressionist, and American paintings.

The crèche bodies are made from hemp and wire, the heads are molded out of terracotta with eyes made of glass, and the hands and feet are carved out of wood. The artists would then use oil paints to achieve the most realistic expressions and details on the figurines. The figures are flexible so they can be positioned within the setting. Many of the figures in the crèche wear their original silk garments made in the royal silk 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 women were clothed in lace petticoats, elaborate bustles, and silk–lined dresses with metallic lace over–skirt. The crèche figurines are authentically dressed in details that mimic the fashions of the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

We went inside and saw these two big clear doors and we walked inside it was pitch dark. Their was a path that took us to a room and a video was playin. That video was talking about a boy named Daniel that has survived the holocaust. It was a really depressing video that talked about his way of living. We kept walking and we actually took the wrong path (oops) so we kind off messed up the order but we got back on track.

  • 7. 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.

  • 11. 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. According to the annotate of The Divine Shepherdess, the theme source comes from the words of Saint Antoine, who said: "Mary is the Good Shepherd who ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... 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 ...

We explored many exhibits such as The Egyptian Art, The American Wing, and Asian Art. I saw statues, ceramics, textiles, pottery, and paintings. I really enjoyed looking at the Sphinx and sarcophagus in the Egyptian Art section. The interior design of the museum was so well planned out in each exhibit from the lighting of the room to the smell.

  • 15. 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, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

It's my pleasure and honor to personally walk you through my favorite room here at the museum, the Hands On Room. I find hands on learning to be beneficial and the most fun way to learn, plus not many museums allow you to touch things so if you enjoy this type of learning as well, you chose the right place to be today. This room gives you an insiders feel on a slave's day to day life, from where they slept, to where and how they worked, to what they wore. As you enter here, you'll notice on your left is a small cabin, which is a recreation of a cabin where slave's would typically live.

The Met is an art museum in New York City that has a variety of ancient 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 statue in this section that caught my attention the most was the Marble Statue of Aphrodite. This is a statue of Aphrodite, who is the Greek Goddess of love, beauty pleasure and ...

I have no time to go outside to visit some famous museums. I choose museums online tour to satisfy my desire. Louvre museum is my dream museum. I choose Louvre as my online tour. Its address is Musée du Louvre, 75058 Paris – France. It's easy to get there by Metro line 1 and 7. 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. Secondly, the Louvre is universal both in wealth of its collections and the diversity of its visitors. There are lots of visitors from all over the world. From its data in 2012, we know that 69% visitors are overseas, there are 15% American visitors, 7% Chinese visitors and 6% visitors from Brazil.

  • 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 ...

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 Old Master ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... 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. Turner captured the force of the waterfall ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 27. My Visit At The Huntington Museum Of Art The first thing I noticed at the Huntington Museum of Art was how quiet and empty it was. 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 ...

Right from the beginning of the museum the interior is set up as a long timeline from the first time when the Jews were being prosecuted to the end of World War II. The chronological timeline starts from when the first Jew was born, that being Abraham, to the story of Moses when he free his Jewish people from Egyptian rule of the Pharaohs. By the museum making this connection it made me realize that the Jewish people were at most times being mistreated and under the reign of a someone or something.

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 ...

Throughout my exploration at the Miami Art Museum I was able to view a wide selection of art. In this venture, I 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. To begin, from the many pieces of artwork I was able to view at the Miami Art Museum, I can honestly say that I chose a very distinct piece as the most beautiful. In my opinion, the most beautiful piece is ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... 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 the painting 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.

  • 37. 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.

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.

Museum Visit Paper – Ante Meridian by Frederick Waug Museum Visit Paper – Ante Meridian by Frederick Waugh 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 to illuminate a jetty in the distance giving you the impression that the storm was ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... 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 ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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."

Remembering the good left in the world can help us overcome the evil, and we should start with our own lives.

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 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.
