Art Gallery

My trip to the Art Gallery was a great learning experience. First of all, I discovered that art can been viewed in a number of different ways. I could not believe how everyone was looking at one picture but seeing way different things than I was. I enjoyed B.C. Binning's "Kiss in Nine Pieces" the most. Many of my classmates thought it was a fish kissing while others thought it was a bigger fish eating a smaller fish. I on the other hand saw none of this! But after discussing I was able to see everyones ideas! To me that was awesome! I was also touched by the exhibit of missing women. This was a very moving exhibit. It portrayed the heart ache and grieving very well. Wow, I will never forget that.

The missing women exhibit was powerful! The kissing fish was just one piece of artwork and yet look at all the different interpretations of it...
