Wow, loved it! “Aloft” sets a great tone for your visit
Biggs Museum of American Art的点评
点评:I’ve been driving past this museum for way too many years! We always passed at times it was not open because we were passing thru to go to or come from the beach. Somehow I saw they were having an exhibit of work by 3 generations of the Wyeths of the Brandywine Valley and I knew I had to get there. I had never seen an NC Wyeth illustration from the golden age of illustration and this traveling exhibit was my opportunity to do so,in addition to work by his son Andrew Wyeth and grandson Jamie Wyeth. The exhibit was terrific and did not disappoint. My real eye opener was the Biggs Museum itself. It is a gem of Delaware! There’s a fabulous collection of original handmade early American furniture and American Art with inclusions of art by local Delaware artists. The Biggs provided a lovely 3-4 hour immersion into the art world for art lovers, dilettantes, and the curious.
My absolutely favorite piece at the museum is an outstanding piece of modern sculpture titled “Aloft (2015)” by an artist Erica Loustau from West Chester, PA. It had me standing in awe to fully understand the power of the image and its construction. A wow wow wow sculpture for me! It’s outside and inside the building!
The Biggs was a lovely way to spend the day!
翻译:我开车路过这个博物馆已经太多年了!有时我们总是经过它不开放的地方,因为我们是去海滩或从海滩过来的。不知怎的,我看到他们正在举办布兰迪谷惠氏家族三代人的作品展览,我知道我必须去那里。我从未见过插图黄金时代的 NC Wyeth 插图,除了他的儿子 Andrew Wyeth 和孙子 Jamie Wyeth 的作品之外,这次巡回展览是我这样做的机会。展览非常棒,没有让人失望。真正让我大开眼界的是比格斯博物馆本身。它是特拉华州的一颗宝石!这里有大量原创手工制作的早期美国家具和美国艺术,其中包括特拉华州当地艺术家的艺术作品。比格斯为艺术爱好者、业余爱好者和好奇者提供了 3-4 小时的艺术世界沉浸体验。
博物馆里我最喜欢的作品是宾夕法尼亚州西切斯特艺术家埃里卡·洛斯陶 (Erica Loustau) 创作的一件名为“Aloft (2015)”的杰出现代雕塑作品。它让我敬畏地站着,充分理解图像的力量及其结构。对我来说,哇哇哇雕塑!它在建筑物的外部和内部!
比格斯一家是度过这一天的好方法!
