My Experience at the MoMA

Isaac Sued                                                                             My Experience at the MoMAOn Friday September 8, I went to the Museum of Modern art. It was a little crowded but I dealt with it, I enjoyed how clean and modern everything was even the coat check looked nice. I saw art pieces from a variety of different artist like Van Gogh, Dali, and Andy Warhol, those were basically the only artist I knew. I’m not such an art guy. As I was walking through the museum I realized that anything really; can be art and if some random guy can make a couple of floating chairs connected to metal beam be art that is worth tens of thousands of dollars why can’t I. Then I said to myself that this art piece wasn’t this guy’s first piece of art he must’ve worked himself up in the art community or worked really hard to get himself where he is now, so that really made me think that if you want to be successful it’s on you working hard and its on you getting your stuff done no one else is going to do it for you. There was something else that also got my attention, there was this area which I thought was for kids, but wasn’t it was an area for people to be their own little artist. There was Legos, blocks, clay, putty, everything you can think of, I think the museum wanted people to get influenced and inspired from all the art pieces you’ve seen throughout the museum and then come to these little stations to build whatever you please. The picture above is me with a helicopter that was floating in the middle of the museum witch I thought was very cool. As I walked out I saw I line and at the end of the line there was a lady that worked at the museum handing out tickets for free, I came in from the other entrance not knowing tickets were free, I had to buy my ticket.
