Yoko Ono Museum Analysis
Yoko Ono Art Exhibit Going to this exhibit showed me that people really do care about the world. There are not many people in society that care enough to voice their opinion, or go out of their way to try to make the world a better place. Yoko Ono is a rare and very inspiring person. The Rauschenberg Art Gallery depicted many of Yoko Onos’ inspiring works of art. The light tower, wish tree, and imagine peace tower were the three I paid the most attention to. These three exhibits all showed Yoko’s love for the world.
Out of all of her exhibits that were shown in the art gallery, the wishing tree was the most touching and inspiring to me. I think it is amazing that one person could come up with such a refined idea that the whole world

    I like Georgia O'Keeffe's paintings because of the beautiful colours and oversized objects. When I look at one of her flower paintings, such as "Red Poppy", I could stare at it for a long time and find so much detail. Georgia O'Keeffe made a simple object that I normally take for granted and turned it into something really important and beautiful.…

    The decorative pieces of art were something I really was not expecting. When we talked about it in class I was assuming they would be regular sculptures or something of that nature. I never pictured beautiful furniture or hand crafted pottery. I honestly was not aware that things along those lines were even considered pieces of artwork until this trip.…

    Cindy Sherman and Laurie Anderson demonstrate art in the modern era by using two very unique forms of art while still maintaining their roles as two of the most influential artists of today. Cindy Sherman’s unique and innovative style of photographing herself in a majority of her photographs, which is her own form or style of photography. Her ability to transform herself and express various types of emotion in any of her photographs is what makes her matchless. Laurie Anderson is an innovative performance artist that has combined music and video art to create masterful pieces that encompass every emotion that is put into one piece to create an emotional boom effect. One might question if it’s sad or happy,…

    Brooklyn Museum Analysis

    The Brooklyn Museum’s view of the portrait shows eighteenth-century mixed-race colonial elite of the island of Dominica in the West Indies. When first seeing this painting you can see the fine detail of how it was painted. Brunias was sure to pay attention to detail of clothings and face and yet still keep in mind the body language in which everyone was protrayed. The two women are shown accompanied by their mother and their children, along with eight African servants, as they walk on the grounds of a sugar plantation, one of the agricultural estates that were Dominica's chief source of wealth . Brunias documented colonial women of color as privileged and prosperous. The two wealthy sisters are distinguished from their mother and servants…

    When introduced to a new body of work, a person often tries to find something they can connect with. Researching so they fully grasp what the author is about, digging further to connect with them. Cindy Sherman is a fascinating woman and an even more captivating artist. Her work spoke to me in a way I wasn’t expecting to achieve, and as I tried to search further to understand her I found that I fell further in awe of her. She was so empowering in her approach to her art. My favourite quote of her work that I found came from The Guardian’s interview of her. Cindy Sherman goes on to explain: “the more horrific works came out of a feeling that everyone accepted my stuff too easily. I was deliberately trying to be antagonistic towards collectors and critics. I thought; right, let’s see if they want to shell out money for this.” (Rumbold). They did and continue to do so.…

    This one seems to fit in with the other art creations at the Jen library though, because around it the other works of art are almost the same in size, this helps give you an idea at how very large this other piece is. Unlike the first piece, this one has a wood base that is left unpainted or stained. Then close to the bottom left corner it has wood planks with white plaster on them all laid pointing outwards from a circle in the center, it reminds one very much of a giant daisy without a yellow center, unlike the top one you get a happy feeling because of this bright beautiful flower. The planks however are torn at the end, and this beautiful daisy starts to look more battered and worn down, it’s kind of sad. Placed above the hole where the yellow pollen of a flower should lay is three rows of five blocks. All of the blocks are made of foam and painted a bright pink, and they are all lined up in straight rows and are uniform, except for one at the bottom left, that one is slightly tilted. In the end I loved how this looked, and when going deeper into the meaning you can really see why this connects so well with the other darker art…

    After I had entered the room, I realized what it was about Impressionistic art that I loved so much. The amazing color. The nonconformity. The raw emotion. What a surreal feeling it was to stand there before the works of greats—the works of masters. Such a feeling I had only felt a few times beforehand, yet none had ever dealt with historical masterpieces—masterpieces that would alter the foundation of art and visual media until the end of time.…

    Those with the gift of being a magnificent artist are very unique. Not many people have such special talents that get them so far in life. However, out of the ones that do, they are well admired by others for their work and their talents. One such extremely marvelous artist is Audrey Flack. I strongly admire her work as she has created new fascinating different ways of portraying art. “Not content to merely copy the world as we see it, Audrey Flack has used her obvious technical skills in the service of art, replete with symbols, which comments, on the transitory nature of life and favors the search for spiritual harmony” (B.F.). These are the words of Thalia Gouma-Peterson who wrote a book on Audrey Flack and studied her work in detail. Audrey Flack is a very influential artist and had a huge impact on the world of art as we know it.…

    Bodies: The Exhibition

    • 887 Words
    • 3 Pages

    There was a body there, that had been divided in half, which was by far, the most amazing sight ever. This body was a skeleton that was basically "sliced like cold cuts." I was able to see through every "slice" of the skeleton. The fact that almost every single body displayed at the exhibit was posing like alive and functioning people made it that much more entertaining to see. As strange as it sounds, it made me personally feel like I was able to relate to them more. These are human remains, after all. There was a skeleton holding a football in a section about "balance and muscle strength." There was also a body sitting at a table, while "turning" a page of a book. Another was laying down, "kicking" a ball as…

    The Human Experience

    • 419 Words

    The art work that stands out most to me is one that portrays a young boy as a soldier in the US Army. The human experience from this could be expressed as one of many, love, loss, pain, hope, despair, values, beliefs and as we hope not but even death. I think the artist had love, loss and pain in mind with the painting. This is meaningful to my life because I feel that this is a portrait of myself as a young boy. I joined the US Army at seventeen, finished my basic training, school house training and was shipped off to Iraq with my unit before I was even close to being eighteen. I believed in what I was doing, I lost a lot of family and some really great friends in that war. I too had a picture taken with my uniform and full battle rattle, as we called the bullet proof vest, on. In that picture I was all smiles but honestly I was extremely scared and felt almost alone. This picture shows a young man with the same uniform on smiling. It really takes me back in time and allows me to see what war did to the once innocent young smiling boy that I was. I still to this day believe in all I have done, know that somewhere in there I have done them for the right and values of America but still it bothers me now. It also makes me fear for the young boy in the picture, fear for the outcome that will happen.…
