Interesting Piece of Art from Crocker Museum


Very interesting picture I took at the Crocker Museum. This piece of art has unique rhythm. If you notice that the art piece is made of small squares that are connected to each others. These small squares make the big picture of our old president George W. Bush when you are looking at it from far. As you get closer the bigger picture starts to disappear and you start to notice different icons that are on these small squares. Notice how they’re put in pattern. Each square has a symbol. Being placed in different part of this piece of art gives it a different meaning to it. Let’s zoom in at one part of the image and see what they mean.

We notice a dice that is showing different faces of it and some are repeated, a person being punished, missiles in the air, fire is everywhere, different view of the stairs, and broken walls. It looks like the author is connecting the big picture with these small ones which we can relate to war that our president got us into. Anyway, look at it closely you can see the repetition and rhythm the author uses. This piece of art work is proportional. It is very interesting how he has them connected. That is why his art work got put in a museum.
