The Bowl
by: Ye Eun Park, Sally Kim, Sara Rosado, Jasmine Medina, Sheena Pierre, Ester Kim
It was our first time at Brooklyn Museum and it was fascinating to see that Macaulay people were the only ones at the museum. We learned that art is about perspectives. In one of the artwork we looked at, our group had a disagreement on the gender of the person in the art. It was interesting that when we don’t have prior knowledge to the artwork, we can be so creative and different.

Commentary on “Two Ivans and Oksana”
by: Janice Lee, Anand Poonai, Joshua Pratt, Victoria Hsiao, Michael Woyevodsky
It was a very enriching and enlightening experience. We never have much experience with visiting museums so having the opportunity to visit the Brooklyn Museum was great.

Web of Life
by: Madeleine Hayes Matthew Dreyer Monica Fining Erin Ajello Bahti Zakirov
Throughout this experience, our group connected with an aspect of humanity which was previously obscure to us. We found it challenging at first to talk about art, but we found our voice and did it.

Pyramid Analysis, Night at the Museum
by: Joe Ferretti, Brian Fox, Steve Gad, Brandon Lei
The night was very interesting and we were able to observe artwork and make friendships.
We learned that there are different definitions of art, depending on each person’s view, and that art can be almost anything.

The Lonely Man
by: Samantha Bergen, Jia Chen, Gabrielle Feliciano, Caitlin Fontana, Nicolette Guida, Tian Richards
It was an amazing experience that we shared. We were able to bond with people from other Macaulay campuses. This was the first time that we had all been in an Art Museum. We were surprised that we were able to have intelligent conversations about the art, having never done so in the past. We learned that art can have multiple different meanings and that each persons’ view of the same piece of art can be greatly varied.

The Fallen Angel by Salvatore Albano
by: Linda Collazo, Freda Iskhakova, Victoria Yagudayeva, Antonio Cerullo, Kirsten Baker, Artemis Katsikoumbas
The experience was enlightening for all of us, as our group was composed of avid museum go-ers and those with little experience in the visual arts.

“Family Group” by Frederick R. Spencer
by: Heba Shaaban, Megan Wong, Martin Tang, Yasmin Jarara, Aniqa Shah, Grace Ouyang, Kaitlyn Zhou
A wealthy family, probably of royal descent, is portrayed in a predominantly sanguine room. Their black and white attire is a stark contrast to the surrounding. The door is open, leading to a scenic view of a tree, a body of water and a mountain. Complimenting this theme of nature are roses crawling into the room from the window on the left.

July 1956
by: Caitlyn Darcy, Kristy Carlin, Ben Fernandez, Ryan Schulte, Ryan Lanzetta, Rowan Cruickshank
Art is a communal experience that requires diligence and attentive intellectualism. It does not demand attention, but if attention is duly given to it, a very rewarding experience shall be had by all.

Night at the Museum – Memories by John White Alexander
by: Lucius Seo, Manjekar Budhai, Hanna Rose, Robert Nelson, Phil Ye Chen, Christopher Lau
Despite the video making process being a stressful experience, we thoroughly enjoyed attending the museum and discussing the painting in detail. We learned that arts have something deeper to offer to everyone. Each person, however, interprets and realizes the artwork in different manners.

Portrait of a Family on a Terrace
by: Luis Feliciano, Marysol Finkenberg, Matt Francs, Cristopher Garcia, Pravindi Herath, Nazir Jalili, Klaus Sharra
I found it interesting, at first, to look at paintings at more than just face value. However, I did not like engaging in conversation that I felt simply was not there. For me personally, I can look at a piece of art for a few minutes, but I don’t feel there is much to talk about. It is there to be enjoyed, but not to be analyzed.
