Museums are like houses of reminders about our history and culture, and so when tourists and locals walked into the Yuchengco Museum for the first time in September 2005, they were all in awe as they scrutinized the exhibition of different masterpieces by cultivating Filipino artists, though that wasn’t the only feature of the museum. It showcased the excellent artistic minds of the Chinese-Filipinos through their paintings and crafts. They also provided innovating and interactive for the visitors (targeting the modern generation of man) of the museum with the ability to watch how certain paintings were created. While this museum was meant to be viewed, it was also meant to be the home of Alfonso’s art collection, the namesake of the museum and the creator of the Yuchengco Group of Companies. And because of his vast contributions to the Philippines, the museum devoted an exhibit that tells the story of Alfonso Yuchengco’s journey as an entrepreneur to an experienced and highly regarded diplomat.

Pope John Paul II—and he was able to visit foreign countries like Japan, Korea, and China. Did I mention that he was part of the United Nations? He was featured in numerous news clippings too from Manila Bulletin until Japan Times about his world-class projects and how his firm committed to developing Asia and beyond. He had statues and portraits of himself (including his wife), mostly painted with oil on canvas and intricate details. A golden statue of his upper body sculpted which clearly showed how important he was. There were also some portraits of his ancestors and traditional antique in

This paper will go over the proposed argument being that the famous muralist, Diego Rivera, was teaching the public of his country of origin false information. His teachings start out with having the job to create methods in which the uneducated public will be able to have an extent of knowledge towards their country’s history. The method that Diego Rivera implemented towards his people was through the way of art. With having the authority to educate an illiterate crowd, Rivera was capable in reflecting whatever idea of his he wanted through his murals.
The Wittig reaction is valuable reaction. It has unique properties that allows for a carbon=carbon double bond to form from where a C=O double bond used to be located. Creating additional C=C double bonds is valuable due to its use in synthesis. The Wittig reaction will allow the synthesis of Stilbene (E and Z) from a Benzaldehyde (Ketcha, 141).

At the beginning, we were kind of disappointed when the ticket seller told us that a half of the exhibit was currently closed. Because we did not see anyone come to us as a tour guide, we decided to discover everything here by ourselves and latterly found it very interesting even though it was our first
The Orlando Museum of Art, also known as OMA, is a hub of Central Florida when it comes to pulling in remarkable works of art for the public eye to pay patronage to. Today I visited such a place for the annual Antiques Vintage and Garden Show, which took place between February 19th through the 21st. Included in the price of a ticket was also admission to The OMA’s current exhibitions, which included Women of Vision: National Geographic Photographers and their other running exhibits, which contained an array of work, ranging from Pre-Columbian sculptures to more contemporary works of the 21st century. The specific exhibit which held my interest most was the Pre-Columbian, Mesoamerican gallery titled “A Trek from North to South”, which was organized by geographic locations in Latin America.

The Oakland Museum of California is a remarkable place to experience art in a museum for the first. It is a small museum but, it has so much to offer. It includes an Art gallery, History gallery and a Natural Science gallery. Walking up to the entrance of the museum, I noticed the museum is small but it had a sense of space surrounding it. The exterior had little decorations and the building has a simple but very geometric shape.

The theme park’s magic and wonder fascinated me and thus compelled me to choose Gehry’s Walt Disney Concert Hall as my building of study.

Therefore, every person that passes this building goes through a unique experience when his/her eyes first detect the building.
