I would highly suggest not only my fellow Macaulay students, but everyone in general to frequently visit museums. Exhibits, especially in NYC, are so vast and diverse that you’re able to tap into experiences and cultures you would have otherwise never experienced. The Brooklyn Museum stood out to me in particular due to its unique architecture and way of displaying artwork. The framing of pieces added to their meaning, rather than simply being placeholders. In a sense, it refuted the idea that museums have to be plain spaces that try their best to be unassuming. Rather, it can be vibrant, detailed, and an architectural artwork itself.
