"Cartoon Art Museum" Descriptive Essay

When I came to the museum, the first thing that impressed me was the astonishing building: it was a masterpiece itself. The exterior of the Tampa Museum of Art has a light installation, and all I wanted at that moment is night to come so I could see thousands of colored lights reflected in the surface of the river that flows near the museum. What’s more, I liked the design of the museum inside as well. There were white walls and perfect lighting, and nothing would bother contemplation. In many museums I have visited before there was a lot of distractions, but in this museum everything was done on the principle of simplicity, and that was very pleasing to me. Moreover, when we came inside of the museum, it was almost empty. There were just a few visitors, who were fascinated by various drawings and statues. Most of the visitors were teenagers, what slightly surprised me. I

I start driving, and decide to go to the Museum of Art. I absolutely adore museums, especially art ones. One day, I would love to go to the Art Basel in Miami. 25 minutes later, I enter the Museum of Modern Art. The building is humongous and busy. I walk into the first exhibition, and am already amazed at the art. There are several paintings, and sculptures around the room. One painting catches my eye. It’s an extremely detailed painting of San Francisco. I think it caught my eye, because it reminds me of the view from the hills of Twin Peaks. I head towards the next exhibition, which is just filled with different types of paintings. I see paintings of people, buildings, indoors, and much more. For some unknown reason, my all-time favorite painting is Van Gogh’s self-portrait. I’m not sure why I like it so much, but I do. I also really love his painting called “Starry Night”. It gives me a calm, positive vibe. I walk towards the café in the museum to grab a snack before I leave. Before I arrive to the museum. I noticed Union Square about 10 minutes behind, so I decide to go there. I’ve also seen the Union Square in movies, but it looks much more extensive in person. I slowly walk around to check out the busy stores, and restaurants. The stores here definitely look classier, and high-end. The Union Square is certainly my favorite destination in San Francisco today. After a little while of walking around, I feel a little tired, so I walk back towards the car. I sit, and have a few minutes’ rest. Where to now? I read the brochure once more, and see a stunning national park called Yosemite National Park. It has a hotel too, which would be nice to sleep in, instead of my car. It is 3 hours and 40 minutes ahead, so I drive to a nearby petrol station for gas. I fill up my gas tank all the way, and get a few snacks for the 164 miles drive

One pleasant afternoon, my classmates and I decided to visit the Houston Museum of Fine Arts to begin on our museum assignment in world literature class. According to Houston Museum of Fine Art’s staff, MFAH considers as one of the largest museums in the nation and it contains many variety forms of art with more than several thousand years of unique history. Also, I have never been in a museum in a very long time especially as big as MFAH, and my experience about the museum was unique and pleasant. Although I have observed many great types and forms of art in the museum, there were few that interested me the most.

It must have been 13 years or so since I have been to the art museum, back in elementary school, on a one of a kind field trip. 13 years is way too long to have been away from the art museum, as my experience this year reminded me that. It was a beautiful, sunny October day, although it felt like July, and it was an even better day to talk a walk through the vast, mesmerizing pieces of art that the museum has to offer. The North Carolina Museum of Art provides an abundance of artwork from various time periods, cultures, and one can find art anywhere from Egyptian, to classical, to modern and contemporary art. The artwork that the museum provides not only displays an abundance of artwork, but

This Summer, I had the opportunity to spend my entire break attending conferences and interning at a lab at UCSD so I thought to myself I would never have the time to visit any art museum or do my summer assignments for that matter. That was until I realized I was living at a campus who had an art piece practically on every corner of their six colleges. I then began my journey, on scooter, to discover the hidden and the not so hidden gems The Stuart Collection at UCSD had to offer. It was then that I fell in love with 2 specific art pieces throughout the campus, those being Do Ho Suh’s Fallen Star, which depicts an immigrant’s transition into American culture, and Kiki Smith’s Standing, which depicts a seemingly tortured woman.

I drew inspiration from the creative indigenous cultures and the drama of the scenery. I painted many impressionist works of art during our travels. On our journey back we traveled through Santa Fe. On this journey I made contact with the artist community within the Museum of Mexico.

My best friend, Chelsea and I went to the Dallas Museum of Art today. It was a long drive but we had finally got there. When we arrived at the entrance I was immediately entranced with the artwork that was on the concrete wall. It had a blue background with this robot lady shooting out a rainbow with the top half of her body, and a giant red hand that is bringing life to the plants that is in the ground. When we got in to the museum the first thing that I saw was the café. I was curious to what kind of food they sell but we did not go inside because we were on a mission. So, we immediately went over to the information desk to see which art galleries were free and if flash photography was allowed. We left there to take a picture by this marble sculpture of this woman sitting in a dress with her legs crossed. Then we wondered around until we got to the creative gallery. I attempted doing a sketch of the artwork that was displayed, but it just looked an intermediate

Feeling a bit uninspired? Yeah, I know the feeling. But I also know the solution! It is five simple letters LACMA. That’s right, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art is the perfect place to conjure your creative juices. LACMA is one of the premiere museums in Southern California, offering an array of paintings and sculptures ranging from Modern Art to German expressionism. There’s nothing better than spending a luxurious Sunday perusing the amazing art within the seven different buildings LACMA has to offer. This “tour de art” as we will call it, should only be broken up with a visit to the museum’s restaurant, Pentimento, which offers brunch every Sunday from 11-3pm. I know I’ve inspired you to get inspired but, what is more inspiring is that

I’ve been to many museums and art exhibitions before but this is the first time I ever attended one in Washington. Back in my country, my parents always take me to those places on the weekend and the passion of watching arts and crafts grew inside me since then. I first explored Bellevue Art Museum a few weeks ago when my friend said there is a really fascinating exhibition about modern sculpture as well as china painting materials. At first, I would never able to imagine how artists can bring animals such as deer and crow-like bird to blend with modern culture and use imagination to represent their idea about society. I really enjoy how visiting those places makes me appreciate the talents of the artists, looking at those sculptures and paintings

The Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences’ mission statement is to be a catalyst for creative expressions and curious minds. This means their aim is to allow individuals to explore their discoveries and their minds to open up to new things, hence building and developing their creativity and curiosity. I think the statement is reflected effectively in all displays. One such display is the ‘Art of the Brick: DC Comics’. This exhibition displays numerous Superheroes and Supervillains such as Wonder Woman to Harley Quinn, which allows the audience to expand their creativity towards the structure and aesthetics of each one and curiosity when they view an unknown Superhero or Supervillain, which may trigger their eagerness to discover their special

Positioned alongside Central Park within the heart of New York City, The Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the largest and most influential art museums in the world. The Met houses an extensive collection of curated works that spans throughout various time periods and different cultures. The context of museums, especially one as influential as the Met, inherently predisposes its visitors to a set of understandings that subtly influence how they interpret and ultimately construct meanings about each individual object within a museum. By analyzing two separate works on exhibit at the Met, I will pose the argument that museums offer a unique expression of a world view that is dictated through every element of its construction.

1938 saw the first appearance of Batman. More of a mystery comic than a superhero comic book, Batman was inherently different from the pure and clean Superman. He was a gritty and depressing character that has been able to remain in print even to this day. Rather than using superpowers, Batman uses detective abilities that allowed him to solve cases and find perpetrators. (“The History of Comic Books.” TheComicBooks.com.) But not even Batman, Superman, or even Captain Marvel could brace themselves for the arrival of the Marvel comics.
