Visual Arts: The Lead Steer Analysis

Intro to Fine Arts
18 September 2012
Critique 1
Visual Arts: The Lead Steer This week I decided to go to an art museum for the first time in my life. I went to the Blanton Museum of Art on the University of Texas at Austin campus. The museum is very beautiful inside and what I liked the most is how the rooms for different art work set the moods of the paintings that were inside. It had a great flow from room to room as well. All of the lighting in each room was different as well which helped set the mood and feelings of the paintings and their themes. The second story contained a section of mostly western and country themes as well as a couple others. But one painting in particular caught my eye. The painting was The

    Dora Nelson Museum project

    The museum I choose to go to was the Dora Nelson African American Museum. Dora Nelson was born a slave and was a part of the first black family in Perris, Ca. Perris had no black church. Blacks could attend Congregational Church, but not join. Dora held prayer meetings in her home at F and 7th St. She also organized the first black Baptist church and held prayer meetings in her backyard under a tree Perris, Ca. Dora Nelson African American Art & History Museum (DNAAAHM) exists to collect, preserve and make available, for review and study for present and future generations, artifacts, art printed material, records which document the history of the African American presence and contribution in the Perris Valley.…

    Visual Analysis Assignment Hope Athena

    For my visual analysis assignment I chose to go visit the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. It has been an extremely long time since I last visited a museum. I took my twelve year old son with me to explore what the museum had to offer. We found the art to be very interesting, educational and unique. There were so many beautiful pieces throughout the museum that it was difficult trying to decide which one I wanted to base my visual analysis on.…

    Julie Heffernan Self Portrait as Wunderkabinett

    The Mint Museum in Charlotte, NC is a timeless building and a work of art itself. The building was designed with a contemporary style and is an outward expression of its artistic, belongings inside. I visited the Museum on Tuesday, July 02, 2013, at around 2 in the afternoon. I was within the museum for about 2 ½ hours, observing the exhibits. The building itself exceeded my expectations, but the inside took my breath away. Every detail within was elaborate and intended with thought; from the glass windows, to the straight lines of the architecture, to the overlooked design of the staircases. The museum was not extremely busy. The museum was occupied with an adequate amount of people, creating a comfortable, quiet, atmosphere to enjoy the art. I was able to enter the museum without feeling bombarded, compared to most popular attractions. The displays were prearranged for pleasant viewing, easy to maneuver around, and located suitably by collection and design. The ambiance and setting was much more peaceful than I expected. I particularly enjoyed the visit to the Mint Museum and am now encouraged to visit other art museums!…

    Orlando Museum Research Paper

    For my cultural event I decided to go and visit the Orlando Museum of Art. There were a lot of different types of art on display. My favorite exhibits had to be the ones on American landscape and the Tony Robbin exhibit. Those both really captured my attention. I also saw all of the art that the Aztecs created. It’s crazy how people from such a long time ago can create such wonderful art. There was one really cool exhibit by David Isenhour and instead of actual paintings, it was very unique looking sculptures that actually made you stand there and think about them and what the artist was thinking when he created them.…

    Museum Of Sex Research Paper

    I know that you are thinking, "Museum of Sex?! What was this person thinking?!" But I've been to most of the museums in the city - at least twice. I thought something new and refreshing would be good for me. Well, to tell you the truth, I've always wanted to go to the Museum of Sex. The curiosity of what it might contain, and the excitement of finally being old enough to go to this museum was so great, that my shameful embarrassment of even thinking of going to this museum was suppressed to the minimal. Also, the opportunity was there! Two of my guy friends were planning on going to the Museum of Sex that weekend and I thought to myself, ‘why not?' And that's…

    Dallas Museum of Art

    When I entered the building, I could feel an atmosphere that was rather calm yet lively at the same time. I decided to pick the Dallas Museum of Art because it has variety. The museum has works from various cultures and I enjoy looking at paintings more than anything else. This being my second time visiting the museum, I had more of a chance to enjoy all that was open to the public that I did not get to see when I first came with my fashion design class when I was a junior in high school. I never felt intimidated when I walked around in the museum, it felt very welcoming, clean, and secure. I like when museums have a sense of calm because it makes them museum appears more beautiful. And just like every museum, security is placed at different stations inside the building to protect the art and I think it is good that they are there because not everyone is capable of following the rules.…

    The museum I chose to visit for my project was the Holocaust museum. My visit there was so far peaceful and reflective. The museum serves to not only remind the visitors about the victims of Holocaust but to also teach and explain to them what went on during that event. My experience turned out to be memorable but I wasn’t pulled in as I thought I it would be.…

    Denver Art Museum Report

    Visiting the Denver Art Museum for the first time can be something of clouded experienced. There is almost too much for one day for your mind to overcome; the architect, surrounding area and, of course, the many wondrous works of art can overwhelm any first-timer. Although originally dating back all the way to 1948, the Denver Art Museum, as well as the surrounding Civic Center buildings have dramatically changed and become a work of art themselves.…

    Orientation to Art

    The topic of the exhibit is finding a new use for color photography using iconic images from the 1970s and “his images are psychologically complex, yet structurally quotidian, drawing attention to the power and beauty of the overlooked.” The exhibition, originated by the Frist Center for the Visual Arts, includes 50 photographs by the Memphis, Tennessee resident who is one of the most influential artists of his generation. Included in the exhibition are selections from the permanent collection of the Memphis Brooks Museum, Cheim & Read Gallery, New York, with the assistance of the Eggleston Artistic Trust, and the David Lusk Gallery, Memphis, and The Frist’s screening of the documentary created in 2007, By the Ways: A Journey with William Eggleston, directed by Vincent Gérard and Cédric Laty.…

    Tierra HodgeIntro To Visual ArtProf Jon

    A ziggurat is an ancient temple, common in Mesopotamia, present day Iraq and western Iran, during the civilizations of Sumer, Babylon and Assyria. Ziggurats weren’t really precise. Ziggurats were built of much smaller bricks. Ziggurats are pyramids with successively more distanced sides, while the Egyptian pyramids have smooth sides going up to a point. Also, Ziggurats are temples while the pyramids are burial grounds for the deceased. Ziggurats were believed to be dwelling places for the gods and pyramids where created because Egyptians believed that even after death one lives as long as their soul has an image to remember the deceased.…
