Entry 4 Viewing Art- Sherrie December 14, 2009

Viewing Art in a gallery is spectacular you get this great feeling of suspense as you are walking towards the art work then when you finally get to see it the feeling of amazement fills your body. When seeing a piece of artwork in a gallery you get the true visual effect you get drawn into the artwork,  you see it in detail, you even get the chance to take a closer look or further away look. You also get to see the original piece this makes it that much more rewarding not many get to say they have seen a origional piece of artwork. Viewing artwork on a screen or in a book is ok you still get to see the artwork but the magic of then you see it originally is not there. The artwork looks dull and out of balance because it’s either too small so you cannot see it or to big so it gets distorted.
