The MFA show was pretty interesting even though it did not inspire me in any way possible. First of all it was mainly painters and photographers, there was no designers works at all, i wish there was at least one design work so I could start getting a good idea on how to use my space for the show as a designer. Despite my dislike for the mediums shown at the show I was instantly drawn to the painting by Caetlnn Booth Night park. Its an oil painting of a night time at a park. Instantly you can tell the artist is great at mixing color, you really have the feeling of night time with gloomy dark look of the park. Also a great display a maxive landscape by putting the painting in a horizontal 24 by 96 inch canvas. This painting kinda of has a design aspect to it maybe that why i like it alot. Its very balance from left to right. I also appriciate the realism of the artist, if you stand far enough from it feels like your looking out of a window of a train as it
drives by. Now another work i find opposite what i thought about Caetlnn work is an untitled painting by unknown artist. Am not even sure what the work was suppose to be representing. I understand the abstract nature of it but i do not see what makes it art and gallery sow worthy. All i see is a giant wast of canvas that could have been use to creat a real artwork. I mean I understand with the whole theory of jackson pollock work i feel like i need to speak with the artist to actually understand what this painting is really signifies.
