Viva La Revolucion

Over the weekend, I went to the street arts exhibit, "Viva La Revolucion" at the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art, and I was not in the very least disappointed. I am very glad that having to go to this exhibit was one of our assignments, and it was very interesting seeing all the different styles of types of art. When my boyfriend and I walked into the museum, we were greeted by sculptures, paintings, murals, videos, games, and music.
Shortly after, we were startled by banging and crashing, discovering that it was a trashcan making the music, each piece different from the next.

I really enjoyed all of the art being displayed. Every piece was unique and no two were alike. There were these two arcade-style games that were collection of different pieces of digital art which could be manipulate with the press of a button or a joystick, as well as short games similar to Pong or Frogger, all while listening to strange electronic music playing.

This room of art was very interesting to me because this exhibit discussed life and death and presented itself in the form of an altar, as well as presented several secular images. This room was somewhat of a touchy subject for me and hit me in a way that none of the other pieces did because I am currently dealing with a death in the family. It was nice seeing this section of the exhibit tho.

This exhibit was life changing for me, and has helped me to appreciate varying forms of art, whether it be on the street, in a museum, or both! I look forward to what other street art I will see in the future, as well as future exhibits presented at the MCASD.
Below are some other pieces of art that I appreciated:
