Landscape: Museum Visit Response- History Miami Museum


So I went to "The discipline of Nature" exhibit, and I have a lot to say about it.


I have to be honest and say that I resonated with the drawing's the most during the exhibit. That is not to say that Parker's architecture was not amazing, I'll elaborate more later in this response, but the drawings he did are just really pleasing to look at. I read in of the the excerpt's about parker that he really connected with nature and tried to build around it. It's really clear, I think, to see Parker's intentions while looking at his drawings, and I really admire that.



Ok, now I have to talk about the scale models. I absolutely loved them, honestly I wouldn't care if there was no actual building that this is the model of, I'm happy with this just being a work of art by it's self. I think i'm in love with the whole aesthetic of this, the whole model being made of wood and the abundance of negative space. These scale models just look so delicate, like they might fall apart easily, but I think that's one of the reason's they work so well. Overall, I really liked the exhibit, even though the gallery itself seemed a tad bit unorganized.

  1. You seem very engaged at both of these visits, but please write more, especially about the work itself--you just get started with the Parker models!
