Reflecting on the Creation of an Art Exhibit:
Riding Through Art
Curator: Carly D. Szczygiel
Creating this
exhibit was much more work than I had anticipated! It was a lot of fun tracking
down different pieces of art and
arranging them in an order that told the story that I wanted to tell. I chose the title because I wanted to express the subjects of the art (horse and rider), but also because I wanted to create a progression of art through time and age of the human subjects in the art. As I
mentioned in several posts I was really taken with the Taft Modern video and
the concept of an interactive museum experience, which is why I added the
nontraditional art components at the end of the presentation. There were many
more pieces that I would have liked to include but I could not find enough
pertinent information about them to verify that they were art. I felt like I
learned quite a bit about the presence of horses in art and the diverse many
relationships that humans have had with
horse over the years and how they have been captured. I hope that it translates
in the viewing of this presentation. In closing I hope that with a dash of
imagination the interactive ideas can be appreciated as I intended them to be
in real life.
