The Meadows Museum is a public art museum on the Southern Methodist University campus, and it collects a lot of Spanish works. When I was around the museum, I saw many beautiful stone sculptures. When I entered the museum, I felt quiet, serious and professional because of visitors who focused on appreciation of art and staff wore formal clothing. According to the artwork I am most interested in, I will introduce its information, my first impression, and the second impression. The artwork The artwork

scarcity, ironically an economics concept. Based on the findings of historian Kate Hill in her book Culture and Class in English Public Museums, 1850 – 1914, I conclude that the rarity, storied biography, and “significance in human history” of certain works of art can give them mystical attributes (11), qualifying them as potential candidates for what I deem museum-hood. As the first nude bronze statue created during the Renaissance (McHam 44), Donatello’s David would certainly qualify as a significant

Between Friday 15th April and Sunday 17th April I visited Zion National Park in Southern Utah. Although the park’s expansive 229 miles of open land differentiate it from the traditional museum, I soon began to notice several similarities between the way in which the site had been managed by the National Parks Service and the conventional format of museological spaces. This first of these came to my attention while riding the free shuttle bus that runs between popular locations within the park. During

The very first time I ever went to an art museum, I was miserable. I was ten years old, and visiting New York City for the first time, and my father who has worked tirelessly to raise my siblings and me to have an appreciation for higher culture dragged us to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I cried within fifteen minutes of being there. All the people made me feel claustrophobic, and I was so set in my misery that I refused to try to enjoy the art. My mother, with all the patience that mothers

The Louvre, located in the famous Paris, France, is home to the world’s most historic and famous pieces of art. It is a destination that I hope to experience before my life is over and I’m sure a large majority of people feel the same way. For this assignment, I choose the most famous and remembered pieces of art known to mankind. Those would be the Mona Lisa, painted by the one and only Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci a.k.a Leonardo Da Vinci, and the sculpture of Aphrodite, sculpted by Praxiteles

This paper will describe the goals of the original negotiation between Peter and Catherine Smith, and the Midwestern Contemporary Art Museum. The discussion will involve the interpretation of the original BATNA and explain its value. Thirdly, we will discuss if interest align or oppose your position. Evaluation negotiation for a win-win solution will look at alternatives for mutual gain for both parties. Fourthly, we will identify influence tactics: which ones could you use on the Smiths? What

The Museum Experience One of my favorite things to do when traveling in a new city is to visit the museums. I have never been to a city that did not offer the usual museum fare, usually in the form of the “Anytown Art Museum”, or the “Anytown Museum of Natural History”. While these types of museums house some incredible artifacts, and I do visit them often, I also like to seek out museums of a more unusual sort. Museums are mostly the same just about everywhere you go, both in the United

change in the roles, functions and perspectives of the participants marked forms of appropriation that clearly went beyond the participatory initiatives, which had been expressed since the end of the 1970s in the debate about the task and function of museums.10 In Tejgadh participation meant to be observer and observed at the same time, with alternating perspectives and interests. For the period of the presentation, the photographs caused—in a way that is not unlike the qualitative sociological interview

Dobrzynski’s article, “High Culture Goes Hands-On,” suggests that the museums current trend of providing visitors with “an experience” threatens the current model of providing “solace and inspiration” (Dobrzynski 3). However, I disagree with this conclusion. Interactive experiences and contemplative approaches can co-exist just so long as museums adjust in response to how our ever-evolving culture receives it. Transitioning from museums’ elitist paradigm is critical to creating a more accessible community-conscious

Many different museums surround the West Michigan area and are the storage centers of the history of our counties, state, and country. When visiting a museum many people take in the sights and displays but never understand the work behind the scenes that when into providing the great historic exhibits. Many of museums are free admission or a slight admission fee but that small amount of profit is barely enough to keep the lights on. So one may ask how do museum economically survive if there is very
