On Wednesday, Oct. 25, my friends and I decided to go visit the Museum of Modern Art. I’ve been there once during my freshman year of high school for an art project, but I mainly just looked at the paintings. This time, we checked out the special exhibit, which was “Items: Is Fashion Modern?”. The exhibit featured many pieces of clothing such as dresses, shirts, shoes, bags, etc. Some were more unique and you normally wouldn’t see on the streets, but were others more familiar pieces of clothing. It was interesting to see clothing displayed as art because we wouldn’t normally think about it in such a way in our everyday lives.
After the fashion exhibit, we went to the painting gallery. I saw many paintings that I remembered from the first time I went, such Monet’s Water Lilies and Van Gogh’s Starry Night. However, we didn’t have much time to explore the paintings because it was almost time for the museum to close, but it was still fun seeing all the familiar paintings.
