On October 15th 2016‚ my family and I decided to visit the Baltimore Art Museum (BMA) which is located in the heart of Baltimore. I was fascinated with the diversity and beauty of the arts in this gallery. According to the Baltimore Art Museum website‚ ” Today the Museum boasts a collection of 95‚000 works of art that range broadly in terms of geography‚ culture‚ chronology‚ and medium”(Baltimore Art Museum). The museum is housed in a massive building which consists of three floors. Each floor contains

A Day at the Museum In the contemporary Art section of the Cleveland art museum we stopped in looked at an open book exhibit where different portfolios of pictures‚ words‚ and artist thoughts and ideas were on display for everyone to see. This was one of the more interesting pieces in the museum because you could interact with each artist on a more personal level. Most art displays you are not allowed to touch and u must admire from a distance and some you are4 not allowed to take pictures of.

Dallas Museum of Art Report 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

METROPOLOTIAN MUSUEM OF ART Fatima Lundy I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art with my mom and my sister. I didn’t quite enjoy it at first‚ but as I explored the museum more‚ I began to feel enlighten at the sight of the different forms of art. It was hard for me to choose just two pieces out of all the amazing sculptures and paintings in this museum. I finally made the decision to write about two different pieces‚ from two different cultures‚ time periods‚ and even mediums. The first piece

Joslyn Art Museum I recently took a trip to the Joslyn Art Museum and was very impressed with the art‚ mainly the paintings. I had never really been to an art museum just to look around but I found that a lot of the paintings used the techniques that we discussed in class. I will be analyzing three paintings Fallen Angels by Francois Cibot‚ Saint Francis in Prayer by El Greco and Sacred Conversation- Madonna‚ Child‚ Saints and Donor by Giovani di Niccolo Mansueti.

Derain’s Turning Road and Benton’s Haystack After visiting the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston for the first time‚ I observed many interesting works of art representing various time periods. Of all the paintings that I saw last week‚ two landscaped pieces seemed to stick out in my mind; Andre Derain’s The Turning Road and Thomas Hart Benton’s Haystack. Though these two art works are similar in subject matter‚ they clearly reflect the different styles and time periods of their artists; the abstract

The exhibit that I viewed at the Philadelphia Museum of Art was one about European Art between the years 1100-1500.

Johnson collection were shown. It gave me a good idea

Art is portrayed in so many different views. When looking at each piece of art and its cultural background I was interested to see more. I enjoyed each piece of art and the inspiration behind it was even more eye opening to me. There is a historical perspective behind each piece of art and we as people have not taken the time to see how art was started. I have never looked at art in such a serious way until now‚ being able to see such a wide variety of art and how each piece was created was very
