Virtual Visit to the Museum of Modern Art

There are some museums that actually make me feel powerful.  I always end every visit gazing into Starry Night, by Vincent Van Gogh.  This visit was very special.  We went to the Brooklyn Museum and the MOMA .  Kaylyn did more research on our visit the night before, then I did.  She watched a movie on Cindy Sherman the night before.  Honestly, I don't like and could even say at times, I hate Contemporary or Modern Art.  But, with knowledge I grow to appreciate it.  So, as we walked around  Kaylyn really had to explain to me what I was seeing.  Cindy Sherman actually has an instagram account, which I now follow.  From time to time I will hear her name mentioned in a comedy and I am proud of myself for getting the joke.  Without this visit, I am sure I would have never known who she was or her work.   So, what kind of Art does Cindy Sherman create?  She is a photographer.  She uses herself as her subject. ...
