    Upon arriving at the art museum, a giant, electric blue rope greets me at the entrance. The artwork surprises me since I did not expect to see such thing in a small museum. The rope comes out of from between a woman’s tattooed that stick out from a hole in the wall. It continuously extends from there and intertwines through bright white pillars on the ground level. The almost mile-long rope snakes up the building through horizontal columns that separate each story.…

    The first piece represents a human being. The overall size of this piece seems not particularly large. Some type of wood could possibly be the material of the piece. Using simple tools, such a knife to carve could have been used to produce it. This piece contains some prominent features, particularly the breasts, hips and the buttock.…

    The painting Large Reclining Nude by Henri Matisse involved lots of experimentation to arrive at the final product. I believe that the significance of documenting the 22 photographs of the painting various stages was to emphasize the thought process of producing a final artwork. Matisse experimented different ways to present the artwork, such as by changing the woman’s position and background patterns, until he created the last painting. He documented to see the changes he made each stage and see how else he could alter the painting, until he was satisfied with the end result. The documentation of the series of photographs allowed Matisse to visualize other altercations and different methods to present the painting.…

Someone I knew told me this was one of the best museum to go to and they had a lot of information on Savannah way back in the days when slavery was around. The civil rights movement made Ralph the father. When I walked into the museum the first thing that caught my eye was the parts on segregation. They had information on how colored people were treated and how whites acted towards colored.…

    For my museum visit paper, I decided to go to the Dali Museum.

The style of this artwork would be considered surrealism, because of its irrational use of juxtaposition images.…

    Dallas Museum of Art In my opinion, the overall structure of the Dallas Museum of Art offers numerous places for guests to admire different forms of art within contiguous spaces. I find these vantage points to be the museum’s most unexpected properties and my recommended route passes three of them. I had the luxury of spending my afternoon at the Dallas Museum of Art over the weekend, and I spent quite a while moving slowly around the William Wetmore Story marble sculpture of Semiramis. She is a stunning work, engraved out of a single block of marble, and as I moved around her, I thought to myself, “Great art is a wonderful reason to believe in God.”…

    Throughout this course I have gained more of an appreciation for artwork and the artists that create them. I have also gained an appreciation for the people that try to define what art is in general or more specifically what makes good art. We have read great thinkers and their philosophies on this, and the fact that even people of such great intelligence can disagree on the subject proves how challenging it can be. By reading the opinions of these great thinkers, and by discussing their thought with our class, I feel I am in a much better place as to define what makes good art myself. I define art as anything created by someone that inspires another to appreciation.…
