WSU Art Museum Reflection

“Pause Art & Architecture”

Different from the last time I visited the museum, the WSU Art Museum had a totally different theme and layout for the gallery. In order to set up a temporary gallery for the next coming up gallery by different artists, the interior walls were movable. The size of one partial wall was an ideal for only about one or two art pieces. In this gallery, all the partial walls were lined up together and the gaps between those were simply covered with a tape. This way, the gallery had more space to display art pieces. The color of the walls was white, which barely distracted the art pieces. I learned that if I am displaying 3-D art pieces in the gallery, I must consider the cretin angles. This way, it will evoke the curiosity and encourage viewers to explore deeper.
