The Art Show

When I was younger, I thought museums were boring and dull, filled with pointless, nonsensical art work that people just pretended to understand what the artists were thinking. I thought people interpreted imaginary meanings from the art that other people just followed and accepted because it was the “cool” thing to do. This is one of the main reasons I avoided going to museums that were art based. Once I got the opportunity to visit an art-based museum for myself, I actually enjoyed it. I began to build my admiration and appreciation of art from then on. I have had the opportunity to visit many museums but this was the first time I visited The Museum of Modern Art. I always saw MoMA related things around New York City but was never able to

She laughed at him coldly, “No, don’t be sorry. I should be the sorry one because all this time I believed you’d stay, that you’d be able to handle my mess. That was my mistake. So, I’m sorry that I thought you were

Among the many artworks I have seen, I decided to discuss about the “Sarcophagus Depicting a Battle between Soldiers and Amazons (Warrior Women)” from the Roman civilization. It was built sometime in between 140 A.D. to 170 A.D and is approximately forty and a half inches in length, ninety-one and a half inches in width, and fifty and a half inches tall in height (“Roman Sarcophagus”). This masterpiece appealed to me because of the unique approach that has been designed to honor the deceased. Many people are familiar with the formatting and inscriptions of a gravestone because it is usually engraved with an individual’s full name, birth date, and death date. During the Roman Empire, a sarcophagus, which is a coffin, was widely used to show decorative themes that includes: battle scenes, hunting scenes, weddings, or other memorable episodes from the life of the deceased individual. The most luxurious ones were made from marble surrounded by symbolic sculptures, figures and inscriptions on all four sides (“Sarcophagus”). Another feature that captured my attention was the large quantity of details used to bring out a lifelike aspect of the deceased individual’s favorable moments in their life. In this artwork, this sarcophagus was dedicated to a Roman commander. The exterior of the sarcophagus has been well-decorated and carved with exquisite details depicting a battle scene

“She seemed confused and so other worldly. I wasn’t sure if she understood my questions, but she did everything I asked. It was all so strange.” He frowned. “I wasn’t comfortable in pushing her though the system or taking her to a homeless shelter, you know, call it gut instinct, but something was not right.” He looked inquiringly at Adrienne, hoping for some explanation.

“I understand but it really hurt my feelings and I would liek if you guys did not say it again and you guys were more nice to me. Can you guys do that please. I would really appreciate it.” Ashley said back

In Grandview Boulevard, completed in 1974 CE, the artist utilizes painterly brushstrokes. The shadows of the trees that are painted dark purple appear to have more painterly aspects than the rest of the composition. From far away, the painting seems smooth and sleek, but up close, the individual thick brushstrokes can be seen. The implied texture of the leaves in the painting is sturdy and prickly, and the texture of the yellowed grass appears to be dry and coarse, however, the actual texture of the painting itself is smooth. The artist also uses both curvilinear and geometric lines. In looking at the trees in the painting, they are composed of primarily geometric lines (excluding the leafy top) that run in a

A shallow gasp escaped her throat. “Even if I am—it’s no concern of yours.” She retrieved her

“It’s fine.” She mumbled, quietly. She thinks you rejected her I realized, my eyes widened.

“You won’t have to worry about him either,” she said in a soothing voice. She looked like she wanted to laugh but carefully controlled herself from doing so.

"I’m okay. What about you?" He draws his words out and takes steps back at the same time so she doesn’t notice just how much he’s shying away from her. He wants to keep his distance. He’s still upset. Way too upset to kiss her or even subtly brush hands with her when it’s too dark to make out each other’s features.

I was going to open with an introduction. My plan was to set the mood proper, live the life, but furthermore, see the form. Some hundreds upon thousands of people know of powerful figures; it could be an old age pensioner that’s growing soft around the edges somewhat melting from the warmth of their own heart. !!!!! At a young age, the idea that I could be part of a tasteful group created by a few ambitious kids galvanized. I had no desire for any amount of money as we were moulded like clay in somebody else’s hands. Looking back, we resembled two split panels of silk thread growing farther apart as it reached the bait. It was all well and good mixing with the mainstream to get one foot in the door, but our purity was overlooked. The

“I’m just not good enough for you…” she whispered. I lifted her chin up and looked in her eyes.
