Dallas Museum Of Art Analysis
Merriam- Webster defines culture as “the integrated pattern of human knowledge, belief, and behavior that depends upon the capacity for learning and transmitting knowledge to succeeding generations.” Enticed by this, I go where any North Texas culture- seeking teenager would go: the Dallas Museum of Art. Walking in, I am overwhelmed by all the displays of expression; some are confusing, some are straightforward, and some are just plain odd. My friends and I make a game out of the experience, attempting to mimic the sculptures of the Olmec people and recreate art painted by Fernand Léger. The immersion sends me into a state of refreshment. The individualism that is manifested through mind blowing artwork inspires me to write again, to claim words as my own and place them down on paper in combinations that have never before been imagined.
