The first film was very interesting to me
because it was so different from the ones we have watched all semester long. Lowbrow
art is pop art in which the artist can create as they please. There are no
rules and the pieces have nothing the viewer can go into deep intellectual
thought about. This form of abstract expression was expanded from the internet
and is now known all over the world. Lowbrow work is deviated from the norm and
unique the the artist.
The second videos link said the channel was
removed.
The third video was focused on the Metropolitan
Museum of Art and its director de Montebello. This video talked about how art
is brought into a museum, the jobs or the curators, and different sales pitches
and meetings that happen during the process of buying a piece of art. The conservation
of the art in the museum is very important since the collections are big and
display pieces from all around the world.

These videos helped me come up with ideas for my
project. The Metropolitian video related the most to the project because I need
to decide what works are going into my project to create an overall theme for
my exhibition. The first video slightly relates but seems opposite to what I am
doing. The artists stated that their work was not displayed in museums because it
was out of the ordinary.

I think the films were interesting because they
were not about the history of different artists and styles like we usually
watch. Instead it was about how the art gets into these world class museums and
the steps behind it.
