The video “The Lowdown on Lowbrow: West Coast Pop
Art” discusses how Pop art was known as “Lowbrow” to the artists who were
familiar with it, and they differentiated themselves with Highbrow art since
their works were different.
The video “New Tate Modern: Switched” explores the
importance of Tate Modern’s Switch House and how it influenced contemporary art
in London. The Tate Modern’s Switch House holds various modern art exhibits,
which is comprised of modern materials.
The video “An Acquiring Mind: Philippe de Montebello
and The Metropolitan Museum of Art” discusses the important role that Philippe
de Montebello had as the Director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where he
acquired over 80,000 thousand pieces of art that were carefully chosen because
they were considered outstanding works.
Moreover, the videos do not relate to the creation
of my Art Exhibition project. My project is more straightforward of gathering
collections of art with the same theme. I wanted my project to be simple and
easily distinguishable with the art it contains.
In my opinion, the videos are very informative and
add more depth and understanding in choosing art for the project. In the third
video, Philippe de Montebello carefully chose thousands of arts to be exhibited
at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for many years. For the project, we were
given a similar task to choose art that we think fit in for our exhibition.
