Journal Entry on Project 4 - Art Curation project


At first, I had a significantly hard time trying to decide on a theme. I tossed many different ideas in my mind, but eventually came upon a theme of a trip I would like to take someday. Hitting all of the major landmarks in the world, I wanted to incorporate artwork that involved all of the places I wanted to visit someday before I passed on.

After I knew what I wanted to use for my theme, next was to acquire pictures of art that showed the places I wished to visit. While searching I found a really good site that provided a lot of the material I was looking for, Fineartamerica.com. This site provided me with all of the necessary information on a lot of my pieces of work, and provided me with many of the locations I was interested in. After that, I decided it would be fun to take my viwers on a "tour of the world" per say. Starting in California and eventually ending in China, I made each slide represent the next stop on the tour as we proceeded around the world.

I found a lot of the work I chose to be enjoyable for myself as well. I liked everything I chose, and it covered a large range of different styles of art. My personal favorite though would most likely be the construction of the Eiffel tower, or the Statue of Liberty.
