Art Curator Reflection Journal

I based my Art Curator project on "First Nations Art" as I am Native American and I love the work that I see in different tribes throughout North America. When I started this project, I wasn't really sure on how I was going to develop my powerpoint. But as I went on, I realized that like many exhibits, it's almost best to categorize art pieces to make it more uniform. Like I started out with oil paintings, then I grouped together sculptures, then masks, and so on. I felt that if I mixed my art pieces together, it wouldn't look as clean and efficient. 

The most difficult part was fining all the information for each of my art examples. It wasn't too hard to find that actually examples, just to get the essential information was a pain. I'm glad I went with my theme because I grew up around a lot of the imagery in my art examples and it's what I was familiar with. Native American art in my mind some of the most various genres today, because it comes from sculptures, to representational and non-representation, masks that are for show and also for actually ceremonies, etc. I hoped that I made my exhibit well enough that anybody can enjoy it.
