Contemporary Art at the Worcester Art Museum!


The Worcester Art Museum offers a collection of Contemporary Art pieces which exhibits living artists in the last ten years. 


                                  Beatriz Milhazes, O Paraiso


An example of an artist exhibited at Worcester Art Museum would be Beatriz Milhazes. Beatriz Milhazes is a Brazilian artist who is known for her juxtaposed Brazilian imagery. Her work is breathtaking beautiful, in my opinion, I love the choice of colors and the use of lines as well as the overlapping images. Her artwork reminds me of doodling in high school except she has a purpose.

  1. I came across Milhazes' work during my last trip to the museum myself, and this picture doesn't quite do justice to O Paraiso. It was one of the more impressive pieces I saw, and the amount of detail on each circle was extensive; here are two pictures I took:

  2. The folded brochures for the Contemporary Art galleries at the WAM , was a nice way to engage the viewers with questions that were pertenient to the exhibit.
