the current exhibition of artworks that highlights the most basic technique, drawing.
September 11th, 2015 to January 3rd, 2016
When we arrived at the intuit, one of the staff come over and briefly introduce the exhibitions to us. After then , we asked some question to him about the museum and artwork. The museum is really quite when we walk in.
Working as a group with zichong and Chelsea was great. They're easy going and work with. It was a good experience visiting the INTUIT.

For the presentation, I think we did pretty well on it.

But, I like the way how the other team record as a video when interview. 

However, I learned new artist and style of artwork, and the project going very well.

Reflection about the museum project



 

             After we went to the Art Institute with class, then my group went to the center for intuitive and outsider art. It located at 756 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60642. When we get inside, it was so quiet and no one there only one staff there. It was a small museum but look neat. Many artwork hang on the wall but no descriptions. So that I can not understand that deeply.  
We took some pictures in outside and inside of the museum. Also, I took a video.
