Metropolitan Museum of Art

The art museum I chose to visit is The Frist Center in Nashville. I have been to this museum before, but I was much younger and do not remember it being so marvelous. The entrance itself is very fascinating. The designs below the name of the museum really caught my eye, however, they did not catch my eyes like the eagles on the sides of the building did. Once you are inside of the building, it was as if I instantly knew I was in for some very elegant artwork. The first exhibit I saw was the Irving

Parent’s Weekend at Marquette, my family and I went to the Haggerty Art Museum. While I pleaded with my family to not go, as I am not a huge art fan, my Mom’s opinion overruled mine. From the outside, Haggerty looked like it would be small, but in reality, was quite large. When walking in, I immediately assumed that the art would not make any sense to me like at most art museums. However, I was quickly proven wrong as a lot of the art we saw was what I would consider impressive. They were not the drawings

first time visiting an art gallery, my husband insisted on visiting the Art Institute of Chicago during our stay in the city. I must say it was a hidden gem in the city of Chicago. The Art Institute of Chicago gives the public and tourists the opportunity to personally view artwork from across the world. It gave me the opportunity to visit a place that I’d never pictured myself spending my time at an art gallery, and this experience exposed me to incredible works of arts.

The painting called The Volunteer’s Return (The Kunstmuseum Basel Oil on canvas, 97 x 77 cm.) was made by Swiss artist, Frank Buchser in 1867. Based on the title, we know that the painting represents the end of the American Civil War which lasted 4 years (1861-1865) I chose this painting to represent Langston Hughes, “For a Dark Girl”. The main character in “For a Dark Girl” is a nameless young girl who lost her young Black lover to a lynching. Funnily, the first image that came to my mind when

Tom Friedman’s sculpture called “Looking Up,” located at Laguna Gloria in Austin, is composed of stainless steel and stands at 32.5 feet tall. The sculpture is of a figure staring up, towards the sky with it’s long limbs hanging motionless. The surface of the sculpture is covered in stainless steel that is made to appear similar to aluminum foil. Friedman reused aluminum roasting-pans to cover the surface of the sculpture, the form of the roasting pans are clearly evident on the sculpture. The surface

Van gogh, Da vinci, Salvador Dali, Michelangelo… All of whose works were available for me to view. Yet, here I was, staring at a Japanese teacup in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. There was nothing elaborate of this cup: made of porcelain, it had a plain and uniform color of white. What made this teacup special was the cracks all over its body. It was apparent that this cup had been smashed to pieces once, but here, somehow, it had been reassembled together. Between the cracks, there were stripes

In the Middle Ages the unicorn was thought of as being a strong and fierce animal associated with chastity and virginity. It was during this time that unicorns began appearing in artwork and tapestries. The Unicorn Tapestries have been one of the most popular tapestry wall hangings since the medieval era. The Unicorn Tapestries is a set of seven tapestries dated c. 1495-1505 from Brussels. They each hang at 12'1" x 8'3." They are Franco-Flemish work and are commonly referred to as The Hunt of

Emmanuel Leutze’s painting Washington Crossing the Delaware shares some similarities with David Shulman’s poem “Washington Crossing the Delaware”; however, the dissimilarities are more abundant. These works of art and literature portray the scene of that remembered Christmas day when Washington and his army set out to conquer to Hessian people. Although they have similarities, there are some differences in these works that are nothing less than noticeable. Join me in observing the similarities and
