- Title is generalized (doesn't actually state the name of the museum): this creates a sense of personal detachment from the museum which reinforces Skryznecki's apathy towards the place. This could also be double entendre/pun with the reference to 'folk' possibly meaning his ancestors. - The references to darkness personify it as a pervasive, harmful entity - to use a cliché, his past is coming back to haunt him. - Skryznecki denies his past, believing it is irrelevant. This is coupled with the fact that the imagery of the museum is particularly tedious and monotonous [e.g.
It included Native American statues to student artwork, some of which were being advertised as being sold in an upcoming auction. Also on display were banned comic books from decades ago. Every kind of person will find something that interests them at this museum. The descriptions for the artifacts on display were
------------------------------------------------- Cameron Art Museum Darian Daughtry March 16, 2014 March 16, 2014 HUM 112 On March 15, 2013 my wife Tanya and I attended the Cameron Art Museum. The Cameron Art Museum is located on 3201 South 17 Street, Wilmington, NC 28412. When I first walked into the art museum I was in awe of all the art. I had always seen the art that they had outside and wanted to go in, but I could never find anyone who would go with me. After taking this class, I was excited to go and look at the art.
For my second and last critique paper, I attended the Douglas Tritthart art exhibit at the Irving Arts Center on May 1st, 2012. Tritthart’s work was just one of the many art works being displayed at the Irving Arts Center. Tritthart’s art was being displayed in a section by itself and Tritthart had placed around 15 plus paintings for his exhibit. The art work was laid up on the two sides of the hallway to separate and make each painting stand out. The hallway had a dim, soft light to it to mix in with the color of the walls and to allow the paintings to stand out more.
Preserving artifacts is great for Greeks economy because it attracts millions of tourists each year and makes thousands of jobs. Greece attracts so many tourists every year because of their techniques to conserve their ancient monuments and artifacts and the acropolis in Athens has even been described by UNESCO as “the greatest architectural and artistic complex bequeathed by Greek antiquity to the world”. Sculptures from ancient Greece is also something that is world-wide known and admired until today. Artists that study sculptures and ancient art will always search for Greece as a primary resource of arts and ancient history. The Greek economy may not be doing so well nowadays but even tough they lack money in various areas they never let their cultural artifacts in a bad state.
There were also examples both in the instruments that were used, or the baskets and pottery that was displayed of our ancestry as a hunting-and-gathering society. It was interesting to notice that art captures and displays for eons the many phases that man and our country have gone through. In thinking about the St. James Art Fair I can't help but be reminded of the Medieval festivals that had stall to sell everything from food to baskets to art. Street entertainment, musicians & contests st. James is a move modern & formal organization of this event in history. The hunting-and-gathering society of the caveman was depicted by pictures and artwork on pottery of caveman days and early settlement days of the US and Europe.
And now after this assignment means a lot more to me. My husband is directly related to Hon Yerry and Two kettles family in the painting. And my husband has a very extensive opinion on the painting as well. Also this painting makes me wonder if the United States government will ever change their views of American Indians or so called savages. Considering the Oneida Indians owned all of New York State and some surrounding areas and now they own thirty two acres in Oneida New York they got a bum deal for all the help they gave the United States.

Artwolfestock.com has this to say about him: “Wolfe is the host of the award-winning television series ‘Art Wolfe’s Travel to the Edge’…Wolfe has released over eighty books and his photos have appeared in many magazine worldwide including NG, Smithsonian, Stern, GEO, and Terre Sauvage. Wolfe is the proud recipient of the Nature’s Best Photographer of the Year Award, the North American Nature Photography Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Photographic Society of America’s Progress Medal.” Wolfe’s unique style of photography combines elements in different fields. He looks up to two people and lists them as his ‘major influences’. Those two people are Ernst Haas and Eliot Porter (Wikipedia). From seeing his personal work and theirs, one can see that he takes certain aspects from them and uses them in his own style.
<BR>The museum that I visited was the J. P. Getty. This museum as a whole is incredible. However, the photography exhibit did catch my eye. The first time that I went to the Getty, the Andy Warhol exhibit was up and I had a great dislike for his work. On the other hand, the exhibit by William Eggleston was awesome.
