Today we went to the New Britain Museum of Art and I actually really liked it. I would of never have thought the New Britain could have such nice art work there. The first thing that really caught my eye was the glass sculpture that was hanging from the ceiling near the stairs. I really liked the colors of it and when i looked at it i sort of got lost looking into it because it is so interesting. I also thought that all the cups that were nailed to the wall were so cool. I can't even imagine the amount of time that must have taken for them to do that and i think it is really awesome the way they incorporated all of the colors to blend into each other. My all time favorite piece there was the painting that looked like it was melting. I thought that was the coolest thing ever. It looked so crazy the way the artist made it look like it was decaying or melting. I also really liked how the branches came out of the bottom of the frame around the picture. That is by far my favorite painting ever. One other thing that I really liked was the painting of the aragoni bride that is in Portland. The painting was done in different panels so they were put together in different sections which i feel like would make it 10x harder. The artist left paint drips on the painting specifically because he wanted people to know it was a painting and not a photograph because of how realistic it looks. Lastly, another one of my favorite pieces was the painting about 9/11. The painting was very symbolic which I really liked and I also learned some things about 9/11 that I did not know like how the country was shut down for about a week. But overall i really liked this museum and would defiantly recommend it to someone else and have them go to it!
