New York Museum

Queuing again for this museums, which I don’t mind as they making sure your are safe, as they don’t what this event happened again so they make sure the security checks are in place all around new york. Which I think is good things, the price of museum was about 30 Dolars which thinks bit much but I still paid, as I wanted something that will always be in my heart and memories, so the National September 11 Memorial Museum serves as the country’s principal institution concerned with exploring the implications of the events of 9/11, documenting the impact of those events and exploring 9/11’s continuing significance. The mission of the 9/11 Memorial Museum, located at the World Trade Centre site, is to bear solemn witness to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and February 26, 1993.

The Museum honours the nearly 3,000 victims of these attacks and all those who risked their lives to save others. It further recognizes the thousands who survived and all who demonstrated extraordinary compassion in the aftermath. Demonstrating the consequences of terrorism on individual lives and its impact on communities at the local, national, and international levels, the Museum attests to the triumph of human dignity over human depravity and affirms an unwavering commitment to the fundamental value of human life

Trip to 9 – 11 memorial museum, shows how hard it New York on that day, seeing what the victims went through on day. I ready my self, as I knew this was going be emotional, seeing it, as only seen on TV, so being there will give me a close to people who lives were taken from us to early. Even some are own English was taken so it wasn’t just America was shaken about this event, but whole of world was shaken, will happen to us. I always will remember the day, as I was in 2nd year high school and also seeing on TV getting ready for my little cousin 1st birthday. This I feel was my height of new york, shows such a upsetting event, the American people stand together, was touching walking round was seeing children that didn’t see it happen but remember it by this years, years to come people on day lost there lives will always remembered by this exhibition at this new museum heart of where it happened that day.

Also at the they built water memorial for every person that lost there lives, and I felt this was amazing tribute to this The National September 11 Memorial is a tribute of remembrance and honour to the nearly 3,000 people killed in the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Centre site, near Shanksville, Pa., and at the Pentagon, as well as the six people killed in the World Trade Centre bombing in February 1993.

The Memorial’s twin reflecting pools are each nearly an acre in size and feature the largest manmade waterfalls in the North America. The pools sit within the footprints where the Twin Towers once stood. Architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker created the Memorial design selected from a global design competition that included more than 5,200 entries from 63 nations.

The names of every person who died in the 2001 and 1993 attacks are inscribed into bronze panels edging the Memorial pools, a powerful reminder of the largest loss of life resulting from a foreign attack on American soil and the greatest single loss of rescue personnel in American history. Ever year if some birthday they will leave a rose on there names

Tate Liverpool – Where My Love of Art & Design Grew 🎨

Art has always been a big part of my life, and Tate Liverpool is one of those places that helped inspire my creative side.

Growing up close to Liverpool meant I was lucky enough to have some amazing museums and galleries practically on my doorstep. Visiting Tate Liverpool when I was younger opened my eyes to different styles of art and showed me that creativity doesn’t always have to follow rules.

I remember walking around the exhibitions and looking at pieces that were completely different from anything I’d seen before. Some I understood straight away, while others made me stop, think and wonder what the artist was trying to say.

That is one of the things I love about art — everyone can see something different.

My visits to galleries like Tate Liverpool became part of the inspiration behind my own creative journey. That interest eventually led me towards studying Promotional Design and Visual Merchandising at university.

Looking back now, I can see how those early days of visiting galleries, museums and exhibitions influenced me more than I probably realised at the time.

They taught me to notice colours, shapes, displays, spaces and all the little details around me. Those are things that later became really important when I started learning about visual merchandising and design.

Even now, I love being creative, whether that’s through photography, making things, designing cards or simply finding inspiration while travelling.

Tate Liverpool isn’t just an art gallery to me.

It’s part of the story of where my creative journey began. ❤️

Sometimes the places we visit when we’re young stay with us much longer than we ever expect.

And for me, Tate Liverpool is one of those places.

Tate is an institution that houses the UK national collection of British art and international modern and contemporary art.

When Tate first opened its doors to the public in 1897 it had just one site, displaying a small collection of British artworks. Today Tate has four major sites and the national collection of British art from 1500 to the present day and international modern and contemporary art, which includes nearly 70,000 artworks. A number of new developments are planned for Tate Modern, Tate Britain and Tate St Ives to ensure the galleries continue to expand.

Tate came to Liverpool when Alan Bowness, the director of Tate at the time, decided to create a Tate of the northwest. As the project become known he decided it would be a gallery with distinct identity which would show modern art and encourage a younger audience to art within their education program. However, today the gallery is used by many people who love contemporary art.

Tate Liverpool hosts many different art work from many different types are of artist.

The lasted art exhibition is Andy Warhol at Tate Liverpool, which I found related to the project at uni. I found his work interesting, it given me insight of mix-media and other different techniques.
