Last Wednesday was the first time i entered the Samuel Dorsky Museum and it was a fairly interesting experience. As you first walk in you see many different types of artworks from paintings to ceramics etc. Then as you make your way towards the back left one would see a whole gallery of photographs of this one child. When walking in and seeing the photographs the pictures had meaning to it. Every little detail was taken into account by the artist.The photographs go in order from day one to the last day the boy was alive. This was pretty interesting because it was not only one picture it was like the pictures told a story and the art had meaning to it.
Furthermore, the pictures were all in black and white which I found to be pretty interesting which may have been done for several reasons by the photographer. One could possibly be because he wanted everyone to look the same and color didn't matter in these pictures. In addition some of the pictures were very graphic and stimulated the viewers attention as you saw pictures of a small child with a huge tumor in his stomach. All in all I thought the museum was fairly interesting and I enjoyed strolling through it.
