When I first arrived at the Brooklyn Museum, I saw a big YO sculpture.

I was eager to see what other surprises might ensue. The moment I stepped into the museum, I saw two ginormous statues of what appeared to be KAWS.

All of the Macaulay students then went to the auditorium to listen to the guest speakers. We were discussing the purpose of a museum and what makes a museum a museum. I found these questions to be very existential and possessing a deep meaning.

When I went to the fifth floor, I saw a really colorful painting consisting of a man and a woman arm wrestling. I really liked the colors of the painting and the message really stood out to me, because I identify with the AAPI community and I found the oppression and struggles in this painting to be incredibly powerful. It reminded me of the one war artwork saying “woman can do it too.” I really liked this piece of art. It is honestly one of the most immaculate pieces of art I have seen with my own eyes, and I think that it should be universally considered pulchritudinous.

Overall, this experience was amazing. I would recommend this to everybody. It was truly one of the best Macaulay experiences so far.
