Arts at Baruch- Gallery Tour

                On October 13th, I attended the Gallery Tour- The Nature of Landscape/The Nature of Photography workshop. The workshop took place at the Mishkin building. At first, I didn’t know where the Mishkin was, I even asked a couple upper-classmen and they didn’t even know. When we finally got there, there was a long line of people waiting to get in. They only allowed around twenty people in at a time. When they let our group in, we were allowed to hang our book bags on a rack. It was nice because we didn’t have to walk around the tour with heavy book bags. Then a tour guide came and started taking us to the paintings. We went through most of the paintings in detail. She explained what the painting was about, who the artist was and who donated it. The tour wasn’t that long, it lasted for 15 minutes. The gallery was smaller then I thought, I expected it to be a lot bigger. The painting I remembered the most is the Naked Body Landscape. In this painting, there were 4 naked body laying on the ground. And it looks like hills in the desert. It was a funny painting because the tour guide always thought the 4 bodies were female. She said someone corrected her a while ago and said 2 were actually male because they had hairy legs. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable workshop.
