The exhibit i went to see at the Museum of Fine Arts was Defining the Body: Contemporary Figuration on Paper. The exhibit was mostly drawings of many different art styles and movements and artist from different cultures and countries. some of the art was very realistic while some was very stylized thanks to the different artists and art movements featured. many of the pieces were monochromatic in black and white.the layout of the exhibit was a little overwhelming as there was a lot of art in not a lot of space. some of the art was too close to other pieces that they overshadowed the other works particularly the larger pieces right next to smaller pieces, though many of the pieces were fairly large. some of the art was fairly simple, like Alex Katz’s piece “3pm”, it was a large print of two people in winter clothes, the print was in black and white and was not overly detailed, and looked flat it was more of an outline piece and had little to no shading, it is an abstract piece. The print was very simple yet rather large so that it catches the eye before many of the other pieces in the exhibit can. I found the size of the print alone to be the most interesting part of the piece. I also liked the simple solid bold lines of the piece, especially in the background. its a nice peaceful looking piece, with the two figures in warm winter clothes, they both look happy as well, which makes the piece appear warm, despite the lack of color. The other piece that caught my eye was a smaller piece by Lesley Dill called “Black Thread Figure” the piece is very dark and disturbing looking with the words “I am afraid to Own A Body, I am afraid to own a Soul” stitched on it in black thread. The piece is made with many different mediums, scraping,collage, acrylic paint, charcoal, ink, and black and white thread on Gelatin Silver print (list from museum wall) which gives it a highly textured look as well as making the piece look chaotic. The piece was very detailed especially in the stitches and all the small details in the figure, where “3pm” was warm and happy and calm, this piece is angry and chaotic and cold, even though it has a warm color for the background. All in all it was a very interesting exhibit with very good variety.
