    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

    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 object that I chose to study is a board for the game of “Pegs and Holes‚” which I found at the Museum of Fine Arts. The game board dates to 2000-1500 C.E. and is from the Levant region in the Near East. The object itself is a stone board with multiple holes carved into the top. The pegs seen in the museum are reproductions of what would have originally been ivory pieces. Played by two people‚ the game’s objective seems to have been for a player to race their pegs through the holes and seize

    As an art student‚ I find the art that we learn about in class very interesting because it is art that I would never be interested in‚ but yet after learning the details I enjoy them. Although I don’t mind learning art through power points‚ I find physically looking at art more enjoyable. Getting the whole experience of physical artwork is a more exciting way to learn and catches my interest more‚ which is why I was so excited to visit a new museum and look at some art. For this assignment I decided

    Although the Orlando Art Museum was the last Cultural place I visited it was definitely my favorite. The insane art fixtures and sculptures I saw left me baffled at what I thought art really was. I always saw art as something sort of boring‚ and I wasn’t all that excited for visiting this art museum. But after this my opinion about art definitely changed completely and I would love to visit more museums like this one. A lot of paintings and sculptures caught my eye while visiting. The Painting
