    Lightner Museum Case Study

    The Lightner Museum in St. Augustine contains several exhibits that accurately reflect American culture in its Gilded Age. From stained glass windows to rusted railroad tracks, this brilliant museum offers a window into late 19th to early 20th century American lifestyle. Museums and their artifacts are often used as resources to ethnographic research, which is what our classroom attempted to do at Lightner. After looking into five objects of assorted dates and materials, we were able to make educated inferences, later backed up by additional research, about America’s Gilded Age and the people who collected these objects. The…

    After taking the tour around the Bowers Museum, I would recommend the Bowers Museum to any person that is interested in studying the culture of Ancient China. However, the Bowers Museum is not perfect. As stated earlier in the essay, The Ancient China exhibit does not fully represent the culture of Ancient China. There is no artifact that represent the daily lives of the average person in Ancient China. People like artisans, peasants, and farmers are not represented in the museum exhibit at all. The museum focuses heavily on the nobility and wealthy. Despite this flaw, the Bowers Museum is still a valuable source of information to learn about non-western culture like Ancient China because the artifacts. In addition, there is another displayed in conjunction with the Chinese exhibit called Spirits And Headhunters: Art Of The Pacific. Overall, the Bowers Museum is a worthy place to explore non-western culture like the one about Ancient China.…

    There have been museums that let the public in on the history of African Americans in this country for years, but it has never been done like the newest museum: Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC). In September of this year, the museum finally cut the red tape after breaking ground in 2012. This expansive museum contains nearly 37,000 artifacts that various prominent figures and people from the African American culture donated to address the history of the American leg of the African diaspora. With an upwards of 700,000 people obtaining passes to visit the museum before the end of 2016, it is fair to claim that the museum is an important landmark for people of the diaspora, as well as, people outside…

    The two museums that were visited were the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA). While the MOCA held artist that were fairly new, the LACMA held quite a few of well known artist such as Jackson Pollock, Maynard Dixon, or Thomas Hart Benton. When visiting MOCA the most interesting artwork that was appealing was "War Never Ends" by Mathew Monahan, and when visiting the LACMA the most interested artwork that was appealing to me was "Mountain of the Holy Cross" by Thomas Moran. Through proper analysis of each of these artworks and artists, it will help show a better understanding of each artist as an individual and their mindset when creating artwork.…
