Rubin Museum

This was the smallest museum I’ve ever been to, but it wasn’t so bad. The dimmed lighting set the mood for the pieces of art we saw. My favorite part was the real temple that was created just a few months before we went there; it had the proper Buddhist tempo music with all the incense and statues. In the middle of the winding staircase that led up to the very top floor, there was an art piece hanging from the ceiling. It was glass but if you looked closely, you could see the very details or a whole bunch of people making one shape. We were going to take a picture of it but this creepy security woman came out of nowhere and told us no photos, so that’s that. There were tons of other small statues though, mainly Buddhas and other religious figures from India and Asia. Overall, it was a good experience although I would’ve preferred going to the MoMa or Museum of Natural History.
