Special Art Museum
I had a project with my team that visited a museum. We had chosen a museum called Intuit and researched it before we visited. It is center for outsider art. We visited it on a cold day after classes.
When I first came to the museum, I asked if my team was really a museum because it was too small. In the museum I visited, it was the smallest one. This art museum mainly collects works by Henry Darger. He was a reclusive American writer and artist who worked as a hospital custodian in Chicago. After he died, his artworks were discovered so that he became famous, so he was an outsider artist and his artworks were outsider art.
In the museum, the main part is the Henry Darger Room Collection. We can see something that was in his house before his death. After visiting the art gallery, although he didn't become an artist during his lifetime, I thought he was still keen on art.
Before we left the museum, we had interviews for an employee and a visitor. We waited for the employee over 30 minutes because of a meeting. We asked her about some insights about art and the details of Henry Darger. We are fortunate to ask the only one European-American visitor around the age of 30 about outsider art and his favorite artists and artworks. This was an enjoyable and relaxing visit for me.
