Rubin Museum of Art

My first thought of going to the Rubin Museum of Art sounded interesting. I never go to a Museum on a regular basis and I was thrilled to try something new. I did not know what to expect from the museum but I can honestly say that I was glad that I went. I think it was interesting since each floor had a completely different theme than the one before it. Of all of the art work that was presented, one stood out to me. I found out that I really enjoyed the copper Durga, which is the fearsome goddess. I thought that it represented spiritual people and I was forced to do more research on it. In my research I had found out that Durga represents a female warrior. I really appreciate the fact that even though the object was made in the eleventh century, the Hindus didn’t discriminate or think twice about questioning the possibility of having a powerful female as a god.
