things all y'all missed out on by not being in one particular discord server with me: me judging the hell out of the milwaukee art museum
#personal#the milwaukee art museum is not really especially bad#it's just#y'all know that one post about how art museums are shit at providing context#and actually educating visitors?#yeah that#about half of the pieces didn't have descriptions beyond artist/title/date/how it got here#(that last one being like. purchased? lent out? etc.)#all of them should have descriptions!#and the choices of which ones had descriptions were really arbitrary too#like the one with a detailed description of how the artist visited spain and liked spain and matadors#it's titled El Matador. it shows a matador. if you need to skimp on some descriptions i'd pick that one#meanwhile abstract art is just out there with no context at all half the time#this is why people hate abstract art#ALSO. not nearly enough benches/chairs there#and only a couple on the second floor had actual backs#a whole-ass exhibit about modern furniture included lots of chairs as exhibits but none to sit on#this isn't just milwaukee art museum of course. but it's the art museum i happened to visit today#do better art museums
