For my museum response‚ I visited Shrem Museum. The first thing that catches my attention are Robert Arneson’s toilets. The toilets look old and disgusting‚ but what is most disturbing about them is that the some of the toilets included random body parts. For instances‚ there were lips on the top of one toilet. Wayne Thiebaud paintings featured everyday scenes. His food services included pieces titles (Double Decker‚ BBQ’d Chickens‚ Cup of Coffee‚ Cottage Cheese Salad). He also had a beautiful landscape

Abram says conversations about immigration are important due the lack of knowledge Americans have today about how their ancestors immigrating to the U.S. is very similar to why immigrants come to America today. Not only why immigrants came to America but what was life like. It looks like Abram wanted to fix the social norm of fear and hatred to immigrants today but found

named Adolf Hitler. Now that we were learning it again and that we went to visit the Museum of Tolerance‚ I remember that Adolf Hitler attacked all of the Jews because of who they are and what they thought was right. Now visiting the Museum and refreshing my memory‚ I remember that they captured all of the Jews and sent them to concentration camps for them to work until they died or until they got lucky to leave. Museum of Tolerance is evidence of my growth because when we went as a school they showed

During the CDC museum visit‚ the two exhibits I found the most interesting were "Where Children Sleep: Photographs by James Mollison" and the Iron Lung.

In the photos that I took pictures of‚ there was a young boy form Italy

Museums are a place where one can see a collection of rare pieces; it is a house of historical and valuable pieces of history. When I arrived at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum‚ the outside structure of the building was an architectural piece of art in itself. The walls are windows to the outside giving an 180 view bringing the outside in. When I got inside the museum and walked through the hallway of windows to the museum‚ I was taken into another era. The light and airy hallways were replaced
