Trip to the Rubin

Last week i was able to visit the Rubin Museum With My bro Tony. Upon entering we were very lucky because apparently CUNY used to have an agreement with The Rubin Museum but they never renewed it so the Rub

in Museum gave all CUNY students a grace period until October 31st to go in for free. Tony was so glad and relieved. Upon entering the Rubin Museum i realized that it was completely different from the two museums that i had already visited in the past (MOMA, The MET) The art pieces were amazing. I learned about what was called Garuda, The King of Birds a half bird, half human that was a companion to the Hindu god Vishnu. This Piece looked amazing. It looked like a little golden bird in a battle stance. Another piece that really Attracted me was the Guardian King which existed during the Qing Dynasty in China. The sculptures are said to be set on the four cardinal directions, commonly used to guard the entrance to temples. The Guardian King looked really amazing because its eyes looked like those of a real person. They shone and looked like they followed you. All in all i had an amazing trip and learned a lot about a new and interesting form of art.
