Extra Credit-Asian Society Exhibition



 When I went to the Asian Society Exhibition, I felt like I was in a very different place, around different culture. I was amazed with the things I have observed there. Everything was very cultural, Art and Robotic. The robotic part made me think how Earth’s future will be like few years from now on. We often hear and read articles about computers taking over everything that we have today, after looking at the things that the human had invented, I believe it is true. When I went by the entrance there is the admission staff for tickets and the Asia store. The Asia store has a lot of books and music items from Asian culture. All these books cover was beautifully designed and its very artistic. The Asia Society is devoted to promoting understanding among the people, leaders, and institutions of Asia and the United States. Typical programs include lectures, demonstrations, discussions about Asian arts and culture, policy and business. The Nam June Paik exhibit was amazing. From the vintage tv robots to the sitting Buddha, it was extremely unique. I visited "Iran modern" which gave me a well-represented and excellently explained guidance on what is happening on the art scene in modern Iran. Each section and period was also backed up with the related historical, political timeline. I will definitely recommend a friend to attend this amazing exhibition. There are so many things we can learn from this exhibition.
