MFA should stand for Monet’s Fine
Art because he definitely rocked the socks off of the viewers. The MFA is in
Boston MA, and visited by the Critic Crew on March 12. It was a real treat, but
the best part was gallery 255, specifically the Monet work.
Monet was definitely one of the most
influential artists during the late 1800s and during the 1900s. Although Monet
has several exquisite pieces in the MFA one in particular that stood out was
“Grand Canal, Venice” made in 1908. Monet’s ability to show individual brush
strokes made the colors pop more and conveyed the mood of the painting Monet
desired, a vibrant and happy city. Monet also had an abstract aspect in Grand Canal, Venice, by having the
colors loose and of various different shades it kept your mind wondering what
the main focus was. This Monet is a perfect example of the art in the MFA,
whether it is a classical piece or a contemporary piece the MFA really makes
you infer based on what is given and makes you think outside of your comfort
zone. I would highly recommend this museum to any art lovers for it covers all
aspects of art and has some of the best pieces of art in the world.
There
are museums all throughout the world known for famous art, the MFA is no
exception. Having art from modern to photography and to pencil and canvas there
is something for everyone to enjoy. The MFA provides an atmosphere that is both
professional and inspirational, and given the opportunity check this museum
out, it is not one to pass up.
If you find me dead on this trip, I probably died from Monet-art-fetish. His colorings is so light and inspiring, and warms my heart in the every bit. The Grand Canal, especially, with its cotton-candy color tone and its dreamy castles on the background, brings me to another world. A world full of fairytale that I have always dreamed of. I also like that behind the fog we can't really see anything specific, so we can always use our imagination. One thing you said is very interesting that many things in the MFA makes you think out of your comfort zone. I'm curious, how does Monet make you step out of your comfort zone? What style of art pushes you out of your comfort zone?
