I decided to go visit the MoMA today in NYC. it was very interesting to see all the exhibitions and artwork they had on display. I saw the Frank Lloyd Wright exhibition first, which had a lot of maps and drawings of buildings and museums, as he was a famous architect. There were a lot of cool building models as well. There was a room with the architectural plans for a lot of other museums in NYC, such as the Gugguienham museum as well as a model of it. I also saw the Robert Rauschenberg exhibition, which had a lot of cool paintings and artwork. There were two artworks in that exhibition seemed a little odd to me, such as blank white canvas and three scribbles. I don’t understand how that could be art but it opened up my eyes to how there are many forms of art in the world. There was also a pile of old street signs that were on display. It was interesting to see how many forms of art there are in the world as I’m not so into art so I never really knew so much about it. Architecture is something I never would’ve thought to see at an art museum. This trip expanded my knowledge of what art is and what falls under that category. This is good information to be aware of in the future so that not to limit the word art to just paintings and drawings. It was a fun visit!

I’ve lived in New York City for all my life and I’ve never visited the MoMA, I never knew there was so much to the Museum! I will definitely visit the MoMA one day!
