Museums Season

In the past two weeks, I've already visited four of the best museums this city has to offer: the National Museum of the American Indian, the National Museum of Natural History, the MoMA and the Met. As writing about each one of them would be a so much, I'm just going to mention the things I enjoyed the most in each of them.

What I loved about the NMNH was the exhibition in the planetarium called "Dark Universe". It was really like taking a journey in outter space, and I learned a lot, too. I've always been interested in the universe, I even have a telescope! So I truly enjoyed the show. 








Then at the NMAI I was able to see a statue that I'd seen in the movie "Black Swam", and which I really like. I know it's a bit scary, but I also think it's misterious and intriguing. 










Finally, what I loved about the two art museums was the fact of being able to actually see the paintings of artists I consider so great. At the Met, for instance, I took a picture next to Van Gogh's most famous self-portrait. And at the MoMA, the paintings of Frida, Andy Warhol, Picasso and Monet, among others, were truly amazing. Being in front of all those masterpieces was astonishing. I couldn't believe my eyes!
