Sculpture Center Reaction

            For our fourth field we went to the sculpture center, which had some very interesting things to look at. All the art had to do with the environment and the place where it was kept. We will discuss the sculptures that were held in there and talk about how they look with the surrounding of an old workshop. I will talk about three pieces of sculptures One that was a wheelbarrow, Watepipe’s and Cyclone Fence.

            First off I will start with the sculpture that caught my eyes at first, was the Cyclone fence the way it was twisted and the way it can make you think of how the artist made the shape. The Cyclone Fence can be affected by the amount of space and its architecture because the warehouse is pretty big and the way that the building is still presented as a warehouse gives the sculpture a better view.  When I first went there the place looked like it was a warehouse it looked nice and all because they kept the old feature of the place which made the sculptures look better and part of the place. I believe that the artwork presents the place in a more creative way and brings life to the place with the creative art.  I believe that type of artwork would have a different type of feeling to it because every museums is known for different type of art but I believe that this Sculptures are better suited in the center. The artworks all interact with each other because their all part of the warehouse image like pipes, a fence, wheelbarrows etc. so many things that can pull off and make the place come to life just by adding a few creative pieces of art.

            Second sculpture the waterpipe’s because they’re very unique I never seen or thought that a pipe with a plastic tubing a piece of art. The Pipes can somewhat bring life to the place but are not very easy to understand what the artist was trying to present.  I believe just because its there it can go with the whole place but in another museum people will think that they were probably fixing up the place with pipes laying around, I don’t mean to sound harsh I don’t have a lot of experience in interrupting art but I do have my opinion.

            The Wheelbarrows with water in them, this particular art is very interesting they had two wheelbarrows with water in the back where the loading gate was. They gave the best image of the place because it was something as if the place was there for a long time and the barrows are collecting the water.  If this artwork were to go to another museum it can pull of in another place. Just because of the way it’s set up and with the water it can make the person think why they put it there.
