Reflection

What most struck me about the museum was how diverse the art pieces were. It reminded me of New York City in the sense that it featured a variety of art pieces from artist that come from different backgrounds. One art piece that really caught my eye was a series of pieces by Puerto Rican Artist Francisco Oller. His paintings were originally made for Spanish emigre Jose Gallart Forgas, and pictured Forgas’ sugar mills. What I liked about the exhibition was that you could find a variety of art works from different cultures all in the same place. Right next to Ollers Art you can find art works from German artists, Japanese artists, and black artist, among other cultures and backgrounds. This reminded me a lot of New York because, just like the museum, New York is filled with diversity and is a fusion of all cultures. It especially reminded me of communities like Jackson heights, where one second you’re surrounded by one culture, and the next you’re transported to another.
