The Exhibition:
Title of Exhibition:
I unfortunately did not write down the title nor take a picture of it.
Could not find the title online either.
But, these are people portrayed in quilts. A wall of faces.
Theme of Exhibition:
Colorful quilts with darker squares to portray human-like images.
When up close to the quilts, you could not tell that they were people, but stepping further away you could see them very clearly.
The Gallery:
Type of Lighting:
It was a very dark room. There were bright lights on the ceiling that were shining down on the pictures.
Colors used on Walls:
The walls were a darker gray color. I believed to be used to make the room even darker and make the lights seem brighter.
Materials used in Interior Architecture:
The pictures are inkjet prints of plastics and polarization film.
In 35 mm mount
Movement through Art Gallery:
It was interesting. The art gallery was silent but this room had quiet music playing.
It was dark but bright at the same time.
Very soothing while walking through it,

How the Artworks are Organized:
Each of these artworks were part of a series, lined up on the wall.
There were at least four in each series.
How are they Similar?
All three of these artworks are portraying people, some famous, some not.
You can clearly see the people in each artwork, but in a different way for each.
Each artwork did not contain a lot of color but still unique.
How are they Different?
The first drawing is more different than the other two. This is a picture of a woman but it looks smeared. You can still see the woman very clearly.
The second drawing is a clear picture of a man, in black and white, with a little bit of brown.
The third picture is clearly of Jackie Robinson. But, looks like an animation.
How are the Artworks Framed?
The first two pictures are not framed. They are just paper pinned to the wall. The third picture is framed with a thin, black frame.
How are the Artworks Identified and Labeled?
I put captions under each picture to make it look more organized and official. They are labeled with their title and the mediums that were used to create them.
Proximity of Artworks:
There was a square room with portraits on all four walls.
These three pictures were not that close to each other.
I wanted to choose three different pictures that represent the same concept but do not really look the same.
I personally liked this art gallery better than the Albright Knox Art Gallery. This gallery was well put together and was circular in shape: very unique. It was interesting trying to pin point the themes and meanings of the artwork. It was cool to interpret art in a different way than usual. I truly enjoyed my visit here.
