Blow out II
Going to the art gallery Blowout was my first time going to an art gallery in a very long time. I have never really been around art. The only art I have been exposed to has been through art class in middle school and high school. I found art class fun but art has never really stuck with me, I was never really good at it and that frustrated me. When I was assigned to go to the art gallery I was excited to see the art and be and try to become more familiar with art, with that excitement also came nerves. I did not know what to expect when going to the gallery and looking at all of the pieces of work. I was worried that my mind would think and question the art work. When I walked in I was not expecting to see a huge piece of art hanging from the wall and expanding down to the floor. One could walk

Artist can see these objects and see art out of them. This is called ready made, an everyday object presented as art. One pieces used multiple everyday object. This piece was called Rip Currents III by Sarah Krepp. It used rulers, buttons, Dominoes and all kinds of different everyday objects. One of the weirder objects I thought was used was jumper cables. All of the martial where combined together and arranged to create art. This piece of art really shows how art can be made out of anything; one just has to try. This kind of art work was really interesting to me and I thought it was very cool art form. It was interesting because when I think of art I think drawing and paintings. It was a new form of art that I was exposed too. It was very cool and neat art too; I really enjoined it and thought it was very cool. Going to the art gallery was a very good experience for me. I haven’t been around art a lot and having to go got me to go see art and be exposed to it again. It got me interested in art again, and to see the value behind

    The art is interesting for the facts that the people who made the art pieces put a lot of dedication and time in wanting to make them look great. The first section in the exhibition is the Art and Action which is all about artifacts of how people who made them went far beyond the boundaries to make a statement through their creativeness. The next couple of sections were the Art and Knowledge and the Art and Power. The art work in the Art and power section had a couple figures that were a bit scary it was darker than any of the other sections and you just felt that the art pieces…

    The piece was made using graphite, paper and adhesive. The process she utilizes in constructing the work follows a meticulous order of rubbing graphite on paper strips of varying lengths and widths and mounting the paper directly on the wall. She places the pieces of paper to form a large rectangle on one of the wall in the gallery on the first floor. By using the graphite strips on the wall, the lighting in the gallery creates contrasting lights and shadows that reflect off the surface. The light is absorbed by the graphite in different ways creating a dark, delicate…

    The artwork I chose to imagine is Van Gogh’s famous oil painting called Starry Night. It was painted in June of 1889 and has grown to be known as one of his most famous paintings. Van Gogh was a post-impressionist and painted Starry Night from memory in his apartment. The view is of a village from a window in an asylum. I chose this painting because it has always been hanging in my Aunt’s living room.…

    Elbert Hubbard once said “Art is not a thing; it is a way.” Art is all around us; from the floor we walk on, to the color of the walls around us, to the music we listen to on the radio. Many kids have taken on a lot of different forms that did not exist many years ago. Today, we fill our world with street art not exactly thought about to be art like mimes, circus acts, puppetry, mask theater, vaudeville, and storytelling through movement (Rapp 4). Art is an essential part of our society today and has been for many years.…

    Overall I admired most of the exhibit, I believe the professional works were very well done and thoughtfully. Conversely, compared to the younger student artists I found it difficult to find much meaning to their art, seeming random and juvenile, lacking depth or a pull on emotions. Personally I myself paint and create art, I believe it should be created to show deep emotions and meanings that words cannot convey. However this is simply my opinion and my experience when enjoying art, I believe it should be shared by all so different people may derive various meanings of a depiction themselves. Moreover, this is why I would not like to own any of these pieces so they may keep being displayed to inspire others, for example, someone else may find meaning in Hart’s Crash where I could not.…

    I think I lack interest in art because it’s hard for me to understand the meaning or the story behind the piece of art. I decided to visit Tampa Museum of art because this museum because is the closest one and because I heard about it before from my friends. Also one of my friends posted some pictures for the museum surroundings from outside and they caught my eyes. Although I’m not a big fan of art, I thought by visiting the museum I could learn more about history and also I can learn about different cultural beliefs from their art. Before visiting the museum I had a picture on my mind of what the museum is going to look like, but it turned out to be different from what I had in my mind and my…

    For this part of the assignment I decided to visit the Philadelphia Art Museum. Being that this was my first time to ever visit the museum I had such an amazing time exploring the arts. The Philadelphia art museum main building consists of three main floors, the ground floor where we have the Prints, drawings and Photographs, Modern and Contemporary Art and South Asian Art and other services such as the dining hall area, the cafeteria, education classrooms, committee room, Auditorium, Main Museum store and many others. The museum’s main building offers a “walk through time” as I encounter over 2,000 years of exceptional art and creativity. As I walk through the varieties of displays and pieces of art I was taken away by each and every one…

    This was definitely the most simple of the displays put here because all of the paintings were lifelike and easy to decipher because they were also more straightforward and seldom open to interpretation unlike the photos in Concentrations 60. Overall, visiting the Dallas Museum of Art was a new and exciting experience because its exhibits really opens one’s eyes as to how art alone reflects different periods of time, cultures, and places around the world and evolves as does humanity. Moreover, it shows how art does not come from culture, but creates it and often evinces the psyche of its…

    While attending SUVA I want to surround myself in the company of other artists who are just as passionate about their work as I am.

Even if I fail, I can learn to improve where I have previously been unsuccessful. I want to prove to myself that I can accomplish anything if I put my mind and heart to it.…
