The Ancient Egyptian Art Experience At The Brooklyn Museum

The first art that interested me was the art of Indonesia which in this exhibit depicted the

Egyptian sculptures at the exhibition -- flown to Mexico from ancient temples along the Nile and from museums in Cairo, Luxor and Alexandria

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

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is an extraordinary New York site. For me, the Egyptian exhibit is especially meaningful because it engenders personal pride in the contributions of my ancestors and challenges me to use my talents to impact society in a positive

When I visited the Orange County Museum of Art (OCMA), I was mesmerized by the beautiful sculptures, paintings, and many other works of art. This museum introduces many different exhibitions at different times and dates. The exhibition that I chose to visit is called the “Sandow Birk: American Qur’an”. The reason why I was very interested in this type of exhibition was because it displayed Middle Eastern artwork. Another reason was because I am Middle Eastern and that I can relate to it. Although I was so focused on this exhibition only, I did not realize the other works of art. However, as I walked deeper into the museum, another exhibition caught my attention. That exhibition is called the “Olga Lah: Amass and Swell”. If anyone decides to visit the Orange County Museum of Art (OCMA), I would recommend to look online about any appealing exhibitions that are being displayed as well as calling their office to plan a visit. Furthermore, in my opinion, there were some types of art that I did not fully analyze because they were not relatively fascinating as the rest. Moreover, the artworks that I examined displayed unique qualities and their messages were demonstrated in a significant, yet informative way.

For my enrichment report, I decided to take a trip to the Los Angeles County Museum. However, I was trapped with the challenging choice of choosing only one museum for my cultural visit. Since, there are so many prodigious and amazing museums to choose from to visit in the county. But, I have heard many great feedbacks about the Los Angeles County Museum of Art from fellow classes mates, friends and family. So, I finally, had my destination set to and planned a visit to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Upon my visit my attention was already fixated on the unique building layout and the many arts exhibited located all around the outside of the museum building. There were several building that housed the many different art exhibits. Such as the first building I walked into, after purchasing a ticket. This building was called the “Ahmanson” building, which housed voluminous and diverse art of the European, Islamic, South and Southeast Asian Art, Art of the Ancient World, Art of the Pacific and Others. There were also many special exhibitions that was hosted at the time of my visit, such as the modern art gallery and Rifkin Gallery for German Expressionism. One of the sculpture centered in the middle of the building of the “Ahmanson” building called “Smoke” really caught my attention. As it quite an enigmatic and stunning metal sculpture that mesmerizes illusions based on your interpretation and perspective of the piece.

At the beginning of this summer, I embarked on a journey through history by going to the Carnegie Museum of Art and Natural History in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The museum is one of my favorites because of its variety of exhibits of history in both science and art. With every trip, the museum always has something new to offer. Going to the museum felt like a completely new experience with the new perspective I have coming from this class. There were many parts of history to look at, but the ones that stood out to me the most was their exhibit on Ancient Egypt. I thoroughly enjoyed the exhibit’s information on the artifacts and the funerary practices of this ancient

The popularity of and the fascination with Egyptian Art come from the pyramids, mummies, and hieroglyphs. The theme of the exhibition is about racial types in Ancient Egyptian Art it will survey the various naturalistic facial features found in the non-royal sculptures. In contrast, the Royal portraits are extremely symbolic in representing human figures with the combination of human gods and animal forms that tend to portray idealized, conventional faces of Egypt. Utilizing objects from the permanent collection at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, this exhibit will display 25 portraits of nobleman, officials, and local individuals in order to hint at a variety of racial subdivision such as the Hykos, Nubian, Persian and Roman influence in the

Tucked away in the Fred Jones Jr. Art Museum basement, the Nancy Johnston Records Gallery celebrates the work of Oscar Brousse Jacobson. It has been 100 years since he started working here at our university. In his time here, he oversaw the creation of the very museum that now holds his work and helped to give several Native American artists a start. Fascinated by Asian art and the various landscapes of the world, he travelled each summer and collected over 2,500 pieces for the museum1. He did all of this while holding the position of director of the OU Art School. Although he passed away in 1966, his work and legacy live on. His vision of a public art museum in Oklahoma not only came true, but said museum also

Overall the author of this art visual lesson did a great job. He followed the curriculum and standards/goals were set. His objected for this lesson was to educate the students on Ancient Egypt, and the properties/techniques of earth clay construction. His lesson plan goes into great detail. He starts by stated around how long this lesson will take. Two days approximately, he gives for each day extensive detail procedures.

Tourists from all over the world congregated around the sight like a swarm of mosquitos. German, French, Italian, Japanese, I couldn’t hear myself think over all the different conversations happening at the same time. It hardly mattered for the exhibit entrance opened and the crowd rushed in like a heard of gazelle. Sam and I walked in and there were paintings carved all along the walls chiseling a map for which we have to follow to unfold the story that is Ancient Egypt. They hieroglyphs, molded under the painting, enhancing the story, and the beauty. Aside from the paintings and the hieroglyphs are the many priceless treasures that have been revealed before us. The marvels unveiled before us quieted even the most obnoxious child screaming and running around the exhibit. The main center of attention was the sarcophagus. Expertly sculpted, this piece of art depicts the boy king better than any modern day computer could. The eyes forever open, staring into you. The crook and flail signifying the importance of the person preserved beneath the perfectly shaped resemblance of the boy king. As the mass of people moved through the exhibit there was a deathly silence that no one dared to
