Personal Statement For Purpose

Art galleries are essential to the art world, however, is not the only source for audiences to view art. To begin with, art and artwork is defined as the application of human skill, creativity and imagination. Taking this into consideration, individuals need to examine the nature and purpose of art galleries as a facility to collaborate, organize and display a collection of artworks. As art however, is any expression of human creativity, its presence is not bound to art galleries and is evidently present in the world around us be it in photographs, the internet or even in graffiti.

In 2012, UK in particular London will be welcoming millions of people for an unforgettable experience. It is a great opportunity to inspire people in arts and bring them to our gallery. There will be lots of other businesses and organizations to gain profit from this opportunity so this should be bared in minds and try not to lose this opportunity.

Working in studios is the key to promoting and selling their successful works of art.

An afternoon spent meandering through the winding paths of the Annmarie Sculpture Garden provides a cultural experience through art. The memories the sculptures preserve encourage the introspection of visitors, allowing an almost tailored learning experience for those willing to learn. Ultimately, it is an epistemological experience for those who attend, as what could be a quiet afternoon turns into a unique peek into the culture of Calvert

This comparative essay will thoroughly examine two extremely interesting conceptual sculptures. Gemma Smiths Radiant and Ron Robertson–Swanns Vault will serve as focus and stimulus for the description, analysis, interpretation and evaluation.

So many people see history as something dry and lifeless but in reality it is a study that is full of life. There is no better way to see this than through the lens of archaeological artifacts. The people of the past are intrinsically a part of these objects. They were shaped by human hands; some were used in everyday life while others only meant to be appreciated as art. In any case, they show the vitality of history which can sometimes be obscured by the centuries. I want to work with a collection that deals with archaeological artifacts, and ideally I would like to work with objects of Greek or Roman origins. One day I would like the opportunity to create an exhibit where the viewer can see how the objects relate to a whole as well as their own individual characteristics. I want others to have the same sort of experience I had while walking through the Byzantine and Christian Museum; I want them to have a moment of connection to the past and see how alive history can be. I am especially interested in the courses that the Museology program offers which teach the proper methods to curate archaeological collections. The experience of working with the objects in the Burke Museum will benefit my goal of curating a

Created to help grow recognition of the Museum, the project of Modern Sculpture Initiative collected identifiable sculptures in the Kansas City Sculpture Park at the Nelson-Atkins Museum (Paine 15). This park holds pieces from Henry Moore and the duo Claes Oldenburg and Coosje Van Bruggen. As a gift to retired Martin Friedman, who was the advisor of the Modern Sculpture Initiative and director of the Walker, he got to commission a work by the artist of his choosing (Roxy Paine’s), 2010). With help from the Hall Family Foundation, a dendroid installation called Ferment by Roxy Paine was the newest addition in 2011 (Paine 17). Since Paine has 24 dendroid sculptures spread across North America, it is an honor to have one that gave excitement and quality to the park (Roxy Paine’s, 2010). Curator Jan Schall expressed, “Roxy Paine is one of the most important young sculptors today. Ferment will be the reigning monarch on that hillside. It is an outstanding addition to the collection that will enlighten, perplex and delight everyone who sees it. (“Roxy Paine’s”, 2010)” When a person goes to the Nelson-Atkins Museum, they may see a tall, shiny tree in the park. However, this installation

The woman who I spoke to at the front desk was very kind and considerate. She was very friendly and trusting and I made me very excited to see the gallery. I was also very encouraged at how many children were present and enjoying their learning experience. I believe that the majority of archaeology’s worth comes from how the public benefits, even if it is only some joy at learning an interesting fact. Seeing children introduced to history and archaeology so young and enjoying the encounter is one that will always bring me a great amount of joy. So, although I wish adults could also benefit from this museum, I truly appreciate its ability to engage childrens’

Dear City Council, I am a citizen who has heard about the decision of whether or not to use city funds for the sculpture. Our city is seemingly tedious due to the lack of art, and this would be a great opportunity to change it. I support the creation of this sculpture because it will enhance our city’s appearance and allow citizens to experience the beauty of art.

Rarely do childish creativity and the experience of third year art students combine. When it happens however, the result is akin to the success of Guildford Park's Monster Project. Held from May 10th to May 24th, the exhibition of works from this undertaking were phenomenal.

With the encouragement of the lily, it becomes somewhat less intimidating to follow the tour guide out of the shadow shrouding the lobby and into the next room. Stark light casts an almost antiseptic glow over the white walls and illuminates the rows of framed paintings arranged meticulously on one wall. “Featured artists,” the guide explains—local amateur artists who have contributed their work. A contract benefits both museum and artist by giving the museum an exhibit and the artists a chance to sell artwork to a wider audience.

Sender never thought of his collection as a museum worthy exhibit until he was approached and asked if several of his pieces could be borrowed. So he built a website to arrange the lending. He never knew that his hobby of collecting would show a diverse portrait of the recent developments of art history spanning the three decades he has been collecting. He bought work that he was ardent about and the gallery of works just expanded.
