My favorite workshop was definitely the Rubin Museum of Art.The reason I liked the Rubin Museum of Art so much was because of all the beautiful art on the wall. At the time the Rubin Museum of Art was showcasing a huge exhibit full of Asian art that had this whole Tibetan monk’s shrine feel going on and it was just fantastic. The Rubin Museum of Art had assembled the exhibit to look just like a shrine in Asia for I think it was Buddhism. The Rubin Museum of Art did not allow us to take pictures though, which was a real bummer. I really wanted to take a picture of the Rubin Museum of Art’s shrine exhibit. The Rubin Museum of Art had alot of other cool things to, such as pottery from the area that the art was from. The Rubin Museum of Art had this one particular silver vase thing that was very pretty. It was sleek and well designed and very ornate. It had swirling designs cascading from top to bottom and I really credit the Rubin Museum of Art for finding such a nice ornate piece. The Rubin Museum of Art also had a very interesting piece of art on the wall, which was a picture of a wolf eating people. It was a very gory picture, which makes me question the Rubin Museum of Art’s judgement for putting a picture like that where children go, but it was very interesting and the wolf was so fierce. I was actually inspired to look up more art after I left the Rubin Museum of Art and I found out alot about the culture in asia from studying the art I was able to find online, such as the concept of beauty from different cultures.
