Movie Review - Pollock

After a few headaches I finally got my hands on the movie "Pollock" The actor that plays Pollock is very talented. I was very surprised with the movie. It was actually a good movie. Harris, the actor, made the movie go into another level. After watching the movie I went to read about Pollock, and I found out that as many artist, he faced almost the same end as Elvis, and other artists which is quite tragic. I would recommend this movie to anyone that is into art and whoever that is not. The movie is quite dramatic and interesting to watch.

AIC Trip Reflection

It was my first time going to the AIC. I didn't know what to expect from it, but it was more interesting than i thought. At the beginning, I thought it was just like another museum. The fun part was when we were given the task of explaining a painting. When the class was moving from painting to painting, one guide was at the painting I was supposed to talked about, so I stayed with the group to listen to what was the painting about since I had my theory and a few questions. It was very interesting to heard the story, and the meaning of the painting. It gave me a complete different understanding of it. The facts that the guy falling from the window didn't died, he died instead from an overdose. Interesting fact. When we were walking I saw this chess board (love chess) and I found out that it was made of gold.
It was a fun, and interesting day since I didn't expected that much from it, I was wrong.

AIC Webhunt reflection

 After spending a few hours, I finally finished with all the questions on the sheet. The website is quite good and not hard to navigate. Some things were a little bit confusing, but the search engine helped a lot.
I like the fact that you can collect what you like, and even send it. It's the first time I see that on webpage like this that you can do, very handy. In addition to this, I also like the menu, which is very easy to navigate.
In conclusion, I had no problems at all looking for the information that I needed. Simply, fast, and quite interesting website.

Chicago Public Art

I have been to different places where art is present. One of those was Amsterdam. When we were on the boat tour, I saw these buildings that were extremely similar to the ones in Amsterdam. I released that Chicago has an extremely wide art culture. From European to Asian to American, all together in one city. I did the tour around Chicago together with Emanuel and it was amazing how much art we saw around the loop, and with the audio tour it makes the experience so much fun and interesting. 
Our tour started outside our school. We went to Millennium Park to take photos. That day was kind of cold, but still sunny. After Millennium Park we went north, on Michigan avenue to the Marylin Monroe statue. As always, it was difficult to take the perfect photo since it was packed with tourist. After we got our picture we didn't know where to go, so we decided to go south on Michigan avenue to the Buckingham Fountain. When we were doing the tour, i had been here for three weeks, so for me it was all new. I felt like a real tourist. When we got there i saw this amazing fountain with an amazing background of the Michigan lake.
Lastly, we walked back to the loop talking how amazing is to actually learn more with an audio tour and being there in front of these pieces of art. Chicago is the place to explore if you really love art. The city and its edges are full of things to explore!
