I really enjoyed taking a field trip to the Museum this past Wednesday. It was nice to see a change of scenery. As for the Duegaw exhibit, I really enjoyed it. After seeing the presentation of his work during class, I became very interested. When I finally saw his art in person, I was amazed not only at the talent shown but also the amount of work by one artist in that space. It was nice to see something completely different from what is normally in that museum. My favorite piece by Duegaw was "Kitchen with Fans." While I enjoyed all of his work, this was the only piece that I stopped to stare at for a long time. I thought it was interesting how this piece interacted with the viewer. When I stared at this picture, I felt like I was actually looking into a kitchen through a door way. Even with Duegaw's style I felt "one with the painting." I thought it was also the most interesting in terms of dimension. The piece was very narrow but also very tall, I think this helped add to the realism of the piece. I can see myself going back to the museum one more time to see this exhibit.
