So recently, the class went to the Chelsea Art Galleries. Everyone was astonished to see such fine art but it did not tickle my fancy (Yes I actually remember you telling us to use that more often in conversation.)
To be completely honest, most of art I saw there was not creative enough, when I look at art, I want to see deeper meaning into it, either that, or it should be eye catching. Most of these galleries were neither one of them. There were a few galleries, the white circular room that were <i> cool </i> but they merely played a trick on my mind and that was it. Most of the art galleries were amusing, but nothing that was impressive enough to stick to my head.
I realize that my comments seem very negative, but maybe it's because I have been exposed to a lot of art otherwise. I like looking at photoshopped images, at photographs that are just stunning and you want yourself to be in that place. And through the internet, I have discovered so many different pieces of virtual art that the real art seemed to be amateurs in front of them.
Surprisingly though, this was the first event from our class that did not live up to its expectations. Maybe because of the lack of well dressed females in the audience. :)
