Angels Without Wings

This week I visited the exhibition"Angels Without Wings" at Rosenwald0-Wolf Gallery which at ground floor of Andersen hall. The reason why I went to this exhibition because it has a really interesting name! This exhibition has four different artists' artworks. They are John Lurie, Alicia Henry, Dan Asher and Adele Kubel.
John Lurie- American women have the right to bear arms (2009)

John Lurie- This is what I really call a message (2009)

For me, I think John Lurie's artworks left me a deep impression because his artworks say many messages. As we see the two pictures, we also can catch the message from their titles. Also, there is another piece I really like is Adele Kubel's six untitled paintings.

Adele Kubel- Six untitled paintings
I not only like the color of the works but also that they look stereoscopic. The color which the artist used gives me comfortable feeling. Also, I think those paintings are very nice to be good decorations for home. This exhibition is very interesting and it a very good chance to see four artists' works at once so it you have any chance, go to visit this exhibition!
This the link about this exhibition
If you have any interest, you can go to get the information.











Last wednesday, I went to Anderson Hall first floor to see one show. This show included paintings and 2D sculptures. I really like the sculpture, because these were some sculptures which made by human's face. I used to interest in one kind of face art which is types of facial makeup in Chinese operas. It used to instead of different personalities of character. so, I think sculptures also contained that meanings. I could find some expressions from those faces, like: happy, sad, thinking or something else. I was interesting in this show. I hope I can do more this kind of exhibitions.

Muder Museum




On my cultural class, we went to Murder Museum. It was on Spruce street and was not too far so I walked there. The building of Mutter Museum was look like a big church. Because I had much interests about human's body, everything I saw from the Mutter Museum was gorgeous. I sketched some of skars and bones. All my classmates told that some of it was very dirty and discousting, but I don't feel like them. By the way, visiting the Mutter Museum was very very fun and I wish to go again to have more

Last monday I went to Mutter Museum. It collected numerous physicians. That was my first time go to this kind of museum. When I saw begainning, I felt exsited about see some new museum, but, when I saw many skulls and corpses, I am shocked, I felt something scary to me.



But on the other hand, this museum was a very good place which can help people learn human's bone muscle and some diseases. I drew some skulls and portrait in this museum. I also believe it is a nice place to help art students to learn human structure.

Mutter Museum

Last Monday I went to Mutter Museum which is a museum for collecting physicians with all classmates and teachers. Before I went there, I already knew that I might see something terrible. However, although I prepare myself to be ready to see those things, I was still shocked!

This is their pamphlet


Be honest, I felt disgusting during I was visiting this museum. It doesn't mean this is not a good museum. Actually Mutter Museum is a really good and cool museum but I just have really personal feeling about seeing medical stuff. I don't like to see corpse or skull or limbs those kind of stuff. After visited this the exhibitions at Mutter museum, I couldn't eat anything because I felt sick.

My journal


There is a one part I have some thought is birthing tools. I think no matter in the past or now, birthing a baby is a crazy difficult thing for women. Many people said that birthing a baby as if to die once! I felt that I may not want to birth a child for a moment during seeing the display. And this thought totally against what I desire in my life! I think this exhibition shocked me at this point ha~ Also, I think if you want to visit Mutter Museum, you should have strong bravery. Last thing I want to say is that don't eat anything before vising the museum!

Last week, I went to Reading Terminal Market. I saw some interesting notes and signs. I think it means some advertisements because people make those notes, it means they want to people can pay attention to their stores or advertisements, for example: some fast food stores make many food sculptures on the main entance. I choose these pictures because I like there colours. it attracted to me.


In my opinion, those notes and signs can make city's economy increase fastly, because they attracted people to spend money in there.

ART IS THE CENTER OF THE REAL WORLD




The quote" ART IS THE CENTER OF THE REAL WORLD" which I really like recently is from Magic Gardens. According this qoute, I am inspired a lot from it. I feel how deep of passionate from the artist and also I feel art is his life, his life is all about art. Althoug I love to study arts, but I always have a thought about it's a difficult thing to accomplish and to make a living making art. However, Isaiah does! It gives me encouragment and motivation to continue to study art and gives me a dream I can have a life where art is the real center of my world,too.
I think someone may make a same quote at Urts because all of us are studying arts, it may inspire some people!

Jim's steaks




I got an assignment which is visit some place in Philadelphia and take some pictures. And post that expirence with the pictures that I took. For this assignment, I visited one of famous Philly Cheese Steak restaurant named Jim's steaks. It is on 400 South ST. I took a taxi from the school and it takes less then ten minuates. First, the outlook. It was a pretty small restaurant designed with only black and white colors. There was so many people waiting their sandwiches so I waited at outside. Steaks smell was killing me and made me to feel starving. Waiting in a line more that thirty minuates, finally I could order my sandwich. I ordered one large size of Philly Cheese Steak with Whiz Cheese in it. And put some tomatos, letters and mushrooms. It cost less than 10 dollars include your soda. Taste was great and the Cheese was so soft.


While I was waiting in a line I saw many other popular people on pictures. They also visited Jim's steaks. One quote that I saw in that place was " When U visit Philadelphia, U must try Phily Cheese Steaks!" One of the famous thing in Philadelphia is Cheese steak. And I saw many other kinds of restuarant who cook Cheese steak. So when I saw that quote, I got some pride that I had a Cheese Steak which is most famous in Philadelphia.

Reading Terminal Market











Last monday, I visited one of famous Market in Philadelphia named Reading Terminal Market. It took less than twenty minates to walk there from the school. There was so many people, and lots of conversation was going on. I could hear the cooking sounds and could smell lots of different kind of food. That made me feel more excited. Inside of Reading Terminal Market was very bright and coloful. Later on, I found a Chinese restaurant wiht Korean owner and Korean cook. When I found out about the Korean owner, I felt very happy and excited to have a small Korean conversation with them. But I got a question and felt little bit of disapointment. ' Why does Korean people cook Chinese food? I know and they should know that Korean food is very good and nice for American people.' Anyways, I enjoyed Chinese food. I ordered Kungpao Chicken and it was really awesome. It was a great expirence for me and I will visit there more and more when the weather gets more wormer. Thank you.

THe Reading Terminal Market












I went to Reading Terminal Marker with all classmates and teachers on last Monday.
Going to market is always very fun to me because there are a lot of fresh food product and delicious food! Although I have been this place many times before, it still is a really fun place to me. I think because I really like to eat food and like to the product is about home goods so the reason why I like market a lot. After I saw the link which is Man vs. Food, I felt the food in video are so delicious and I want to try all of them in Reading Terminal Market. This time I went to the Lovine borthers to buy some vegetable. This place made me so excited. It is not only sell fresh food but also the product there looks so colorful and the price is nice to students!
Also, I bought a handmade chocolate cookie, it was so good. The chocolate in that cookie was still hot when I was eating! I would recommend Reading Terminal Market to other people if you like fresh food and product, the Reading Terminal Market is a good choice.




















Last monday, I went to Reading Teaminal Market again. This my secand time went to this kind of market in Philly. I felt excited because I saw a plenty of different stores in the market. Most stores sell different food. the market also has a lot of fast food stores. I bought some dumplings and cake. those are chinese food. The test was very yummy. I really enjoyed. I toke many photos about this market because I like get more experiences in here.




Compared with a market which is located in China-town, this market was more clean and less crowded. So, I think you can enjoy the envionment of market. I holp next time I can get more adventures in this market.
