For my exhibit I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. I saw the Big Bamboo exhibit but i was too afraid to walk through it. It did not look very sturdy. It was an interesting piece. There were SO many piece of bamboo all intertwined together. The exhibit is constantly changing. More bamboo is added throughout the time the exhibit is up. It is such a cool concept.
When I was in the MET I couldn't help but look at the more classic works around the museum. There was an a european sculpture section with marble sculptures of people draped in cloth and the detail was unreal. I was the most impressed with the workmanship and talent it took to make such works.
I also did a project on Claude Monet and many of his original works were displayed there, so I couldn't help but look. The feeling I got when I saw the paintings was un like any other. It took my breath away. The history behind the paintings, knowing Monet himself painted them. It was unreal.
