Rubin Museum

When I think of museums in the city I think of the MOMA, the American Museum of Natural History, Guggenheim Museums and other notable museums. However, when we were told we had to visit the Rubin Museum of Art i was intrigued to find out what is housed in the museum. When I went to the museum, by looking from the outside I would not expect to see all the wonderful art that was inside. The one art work that stood out the most to me was a colorful painted cloth that was on display in the Nepalese Legacy exhibit. What struck me was all the bright colors that were used, and looking at it and seeing all the gods just made you feel very peaceful and relaxed. Looking at any work of art I enjoy to know some historical context and this Nepalese cloth has a lot of rich history, making it an even more significant masterpiece to display. I enjoyed my time at the Rubin Museum of Art and I would consider going back there to see what new exhibits they have on display.
