Astrological Ceiling

by: Brian Rivéra, Ashley Brea Tavarez, Joanna DeJesus, Maria Ospina.


Through this experience we learned how to appreciate and analyze art. We all learned to look at the entirety of the art piece in order to discover new things that we didn’t take notice of initially.

Center Table

by: Michael Tirado, Kyle Leighton, Sara Pepkin, Makeba Ross


We learned that by taking time to really focus on different aspects of a work of art, it enhances the experience of visiting the museum.

Décontractée

by: Lisa Ng, Nick Maddalena, Andrew Chao


This was an eye opening experience for all of us; we had never been forced to analyze art in this way. We learned to notice the the little details and the discrepancies within the actual piece of art itself, which I believe, in turn would make us more aware of the details in every day life.

All Talk No Work

by: Olivia Sztanga, Hanna Utkin, Nicholas Sanso


I learned that a lot of people know how to appreciate and discuss art, a silent medium of communication, if you actually probe them into staring at one thing for long enough.

Sarah Cowell

by: Laura Benasaraf, Cinderella Chan, Tiffany Chan, Alanna Leung


Our group chose to analyze the portrait of Sarah Cowell, which was in the American wing of the Brooklyn Museum. It was intriguing to have conversations about art with other Macaulay students. It was interesting to see which pieces of art generated conversation and which didn’t stimulate us enough to converse about them.
Unfortunately, our original recordings were lost during the uploading process, so we didn’t have as much time to spend on the editing of our video. Nevertheless, it was overall an enjoyable experience.

Nineteenth Century Houses

by: Connie Li, Rachel Smalle, Joshua Kleyman


It was interesting to see the various types of art: sculpture, painting, etc. This experience allowed us to interact with our classmates and share our opinions about specific pieces of art, such as Hawkins’s Nineteenth Century Houses. The technology aspect, using media recordings, allow us to further publicize our opinions in the cyber community.

The Storm

by: Denise Robles, David Alvarez, Christina Tsangouri, Ashwini Chawla


It was interesting to witness such a great work of art and to discuss it with my peers. We learned that art can be interpretive in many ways. All art is subjective depending on the viewer.

Soundsuits

by: J.A. Strub, Anna Chen, Janice Fong


It was a very enjoyable and interesting experience and I think it was definitely worth doing. Recording our thoughts on various pieces of art really helped us to think of that art in a different way than we would have if we simply looked at it at-a-glance and did not discuss it. I also thought that creating the video was interesting because it allowed us to reflect on our thoughts and feelings after getting some distance from them, reconstituting them and re-organizing them in a new way.

A Storm in the Rocky Mountains

by: Dalia Moradi, Vinny Blandino, Jonathan Perlman, Matthew Dennis, Lawrenzo Lue


We enjoyed our experience working on this project together and learning about art. We divided tasks and learned to work together. We also shared our perspectives on the work of art and learned each other’s opinions. In addition to improving our skills using Garageband and iMovie we had a great experience overall.
