I visited the Patricia and Phillip Frost Art Museum at FIU. There were several artists on exhibit there from different parts of the Caribbean, Central and South American and the United States. The most beautiful piece that I saw was a tapestry that showed what looked like two women facing in opposite directions. One was red, one was black. While I was looking at it I was wondering how long it took the artist to make the piece because it is very detailed and complicated but kind of…

These same people see fine art classes as a hobby to do on a student’s leisure time not an essential aspect to cultivate student learning.

of Marianne Brandt When thinking about the Bauhaus and all of its accomplishments and designs, it is rare that one thinks of a woman's work. Despite this most likely having something to do with Walter Gropius’s intentions, men's domination in the art world and history being written largely by men, there were many distinct successful works by women that have been overshadowed by the male counterpart.
