Our visit to the Brooklyn Museum was quite an eye-opening experience. For the majority of our group, who had never been to this museum, and even for those who had been there before, having to analyze and discuss the artwork allowed us to explore the diversity of art and its nuances. We realized how much we could learn about a time period from observing its art and also how telling a work of art is about its artist. Our group also was surprised and pleased with how well the group dynamic played out and our ability to play off of one another’s opinions and ideas. Overall, we are thankful we had this experience and we will look forward to viewing art in the future with an enlightened and engaged perspective.
