I first time was traveling to the museum of contemporary art of Chicago. Before I with my classmates visited there on Wednesday, November 23, 2011, I never knew this museum, even though I have been Chicago for 10 years. When we arrived front step of the gate of museum, I was surprised about the building of the museum. Because of the gate and windows of the building were bright, such as transparent glasses. When people got there, they felt clearly as like my feelings. The professor Gitte took several pictures for us. It will be reminds us never forget our appreciated art class in the future. For the building, one of the nation’s largest facilities devoted to contemporary art; the museum offers exhibitions of painting, sculpture, video, and performance create since 1949 by important artists. So, it gave me the most impression. I saw that an arch shape wood, it was very simple. I did have a camera, so, I sorry could not take a picture for it. I learned that Martin Puryear{(American, b.1941) Unititled, 1975-78} works was as Osuge Orange Wood and Maple and brass studs Collection museum of contemporary art Chicago. I asked Gitte, “Is it art?”. Gitte was confirmed, “Yes, it is art”. But I think that was very general, because I remembered that when I was a child, I saw my grandmother used to it to do steam rice, food. It seemed a shelf to put in the water pan, a rice pot to put on the arch wood. When boiling the water, the rice was steamed. If I understood that can use to made art, I would tried to learning make it. But I lacked the knowledge to created art because I was not artist. But art was created by artists from common things. And it stated that people are living with art in every day and ever thing.
