Chicago Museum Visit

For centuries, dolls have been crafted by mothers for their children, using a variety of household materials.In colonial times, girls and their mothers crafted dolls of ordinary household materials such as wooden spoons, whittled clothes-pegs, yarn, buttons, rags, socks and cornhusks. Later, calico fabrics, felt and handkerchiefs became widely available and were used for doll-crafting.

As Edgar Degas once said, “ Art is not what you see, but what others make you see”. The St. Louis Art Museum is a place for artist to display their art and give spectators the option to see art from a new perspective. This was the case for me. As we walked up to the beautifully structured building that stood so tall and wide, my expectations were extremely high. At first glance I notice the bronze statue of King Louis IX of France riding high on his horse. From this statue alone, my expectations of the art museum grew stronger. I have never been to an art museum before, so I wasn’t sure of what to expect. My first expectation was to see huge detailed sculptures right as I walked through the door. That expectation didn’t come true.

Since the Museum's opening in 1931, the collection has grown to more than 12,000 paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings, and photographs, representing nearly 2,000 individual artists and providing the most complete overview of twentieth-century American art of any museum in the

My undergraduate study in painting and drawing at the School of Art Institute of Chicago was one of the significant experiences and experiments in my art career. I was able to experiment art materials and tools in painting and drawing studio

I went to the Crocker art museum in california. I chose this museum because my cousin had recommended it to me I had also figured since I was out of chicago I would see lots of local paintings and exhibits that I would never see in chicago. my experience there was very pleasant, the museum was extremely large and had many different aries to explore.

Most people, if not everyone, knows about Chicago. They know that it is the third most populated city in the US, and that it's the home of the Cubs. Chicago comes to mind as this crowded, popular city with skyscrapers, lots of wind, and great shopping, and while all of this is true, the city endured many struggles before it reached what it is today.

It was a cold,dark gray, day to our trip to Washington D.C. . The museum that I visited was the The Air and Space Museum. The Air and Space Museum has a lot of experiences that you can learn. At the museum that I visited had rockets, planes, and the gear that the pilots wear. The airplane that I went in had all the controls that the pilots used.

I learned that every state has its own rough areas and good areas. I have visited Chicago, IL and it remind me a lot as New York City except for it being windy some of the time. The only thing I should have done in Chicago is watched the Chicago Bears, Chicago White Sox, and Chicago Cubs. Working from home must be relaxing and stress free. My wife is currently looking for work and she been searching on working from home. Congratulations receiving your Associate Degrees and I know you are very proud of yourself.

Females wore fitted bodice dresses in waist-length and full skirts in various styles from the 1830s to1860s. Toddler boys and little girls wore similar clothes, but they were different from women’s fashion. The bodice of the children’s garment was unfitted and gathered into an inset waistband; the neckline at that time usually had a wide off-the-shoulder style; the top had short sleeves in puffed or cap cuts; the length of a full skirt had a varied style that the toddlers wore below-knee length, and the oldest girls wore calf length. Furthermore, the fabric of daywear dresses for girls used printed cottons or wool challis. Under the dresses, little girls and boys wore white cotton ankle-length trousers, called pantaloons or pantalets.3 In the

I went to Detroit Institute of Arts on the date of March 16, 2016, unfortunately I was not able to go to DIA again during the class. I’ll be using the pictures that I took on that date and explain the experiences as well since it was my first time and it was actually to write a paper too for the class last semester, Art History by Deborah Kawsky, it was to pick three pictures and do the research on them and their history. Luckily I took a picture of more than three paintings at the museum, so I’ll be using two of four paintings that I didn’t use last semester.

To begin, for my fieldwork project I decided to visit the Milwaukee Public Museum. The cross-cultural topic that I chose is “Tools of all Kinds” and I focused on weapons. I decided to choose weapons because I believe they can tell us a lot about the culture of different people from different parts of the world. The types of weapons and what they are made of represent different cultural views and even the surrounding areas of these places, because weapons are made from what is available to people. Weapons from different places in the world can lead to inferences of that specific culture’s religious beliefs, their surrounding availability of resources, and even their traditions. While conducting my research I was highly intrigued by my findings and I was previously unaware of the different weapons that have developed over time in different parts of the world. Some of the finesse and delicacy in design of specific weapons was so beautiful. As I was taking pictures of different weapons and noting the type of materials used to make these weapons, I was astonished by some of my findings. The styles of each weapon was unique in its’ design and material, as well as its purpose. Most of the weapons served a purpose in war or territorial fights. However, there were also different purposes for some of the weapons I observed.

The Art Institute of Chicago’s contemporary art gallery after 1960 does a remarkable job of creating a visual world for their audience throughout the entire gallery. Remarkable in a way, that the audience can easily recognize and point out things; things that people can relate to in their everyday life or things people found of interest. The contemporary gallery after 1960 presents a visual experience for their audience that was imagery. Two works of art that stood out the most was Andy Warhol’s Mao produced in 1973 and David Hockney’s American Collectors produced in 1968.

The Picasso It was my first day in the United States of America, travelling all the way from Nepal to witness this amazing city. I was mesmerized by the skyline and obviously the food. I was carving for my native Nepali food and to my amazement, there are many restaurants of nearly all the cuisines. Chicago is a city with over 2.7 million residents (Wikipedia, City of Chicago), living in the biting cold weather still happy and trying to cope up with the hustle and bustle of the big city. It has nearly all the ethnic cultures within the neighborhood, if one wants to experience any of these ethnic cultures they simply need to pay a visit to these neighborhoods. Now, talking about the skyline the architecture is amazing, done with perfection and will leave you awe-struck. It masters in all the international styles and the maintenance of these buildings are the top priority for the Chicagoans. I didn’t find a single building in a bad condition and not only the buildings look good they are very safe too. All the buildings have well-maintained facilities in case of an emergency. I took a short nap in the hotel and then left for a city tour, which was offered by the Chicago trolley. There I saw a huge dark metal structure which was challenging you to interpret it. I got down and started admiring the structure and was trying to understand the artist’s purpose. I noticed it was called “The Picasso”, it left me in a deep thought on what is the purpose of the gift and the history

Both the stitching and draping techniques are being used in the construction process of the costume designs. Cotton and brocade fabrics are mostly used in the film.
