http://www.gibbesmuseum.org/explore/cur_exhibit2.php?id=92


With in the museum there are two exhibits the sounds of vision and the sculptures from Willard Hirsch. With the Sounds of Vision it was more of a rock and role exhibit of many popular artist. From Elvis to the Beatles and even new generation music Madonna and a well know artist Michael This exhibit explores the life of art but also in a famous way. The Sculptures from Willard Hirsch are sculptures based on the 20th century. Hirsch works with Wood, Terricata, Metal, plaster, and many other substances as his base. Also some of Hirsch art is on display in Charleston.

Through my experience at the Gibbs museum my favorite part was looking at the rock and role photos. The black and white one of Elivs was my absolute favorite for the reason the angle was perfect and he was just so deep in thought. Also knowing that the sculputre at the battery was made from a famos artist but also one that is really famos in town is pretty cool. One thing I would like to know is how do some of these sculpture pop up in ones head to make it.

The Seasonal Changes of Clothing

What: Winter Seasonal Fashion

Where: Charleston Museum

When: December 1- January 6, 2013

Clothing changes with the Seasons every year. Especially in Winter time. Women with their big coats and hats. The men with their jackets, gloves, and pants. This exhibit focused on styles from the 19th Century.  The women wore their bright colored dresses.  The men wore their wide range of coats and jackets. Some men wore Scottish quilts.


This exhibit was quite interesting to see the tastes of style from over a 100 years ago and what some of us would wear during that time.  Thankfully, we do not wear some of this outfits. As it would be a little outdated.

          Abraham Lincoln is the 16th President who was born February 12, 1809, in Kentucky. The movie was about Lincolns time in office around the final months of his life. During the movie it is in time of war and Lincoln designs a plan in order to end it. While ending the war he plans to eliminate slavery and reunite the country as one. The beginning of the movie he is trying to add the 13 amendment which is to abolish slavery. He was scared that since the civil war was bout to be done that the courts would not accept his emancipation proclamation.  The rest of the movie was based upon whether or not the amendment would be passed or not. With the amendment the movie fasts fowards a few months to the night when lincoln was shot.

Through my experience of watching the movie it was really interesting to me for the reason in 11th grade US history I wrote my 10 pg. paper on Abraham Lincoln. Writting this paper had me really interested the whole entire time for the reason I could actually picture and see what it could have been like if i was there watching him during his term. Although it made me wonder why did the producers not want to do a whole presentation on Lincoln and his whole life.

The story of King George VI of Britain, his impromptu ascension to the throne and the speech therapist who helped the unsure monarch become worthy of it.

A Pro-Life Story: October Baby

What:October Baby
Who: FBS student
When:Nov.12th
Where:First Baptist School
Price:free

October Baby is a 2011 American Christian-themed dramatic film directed by Andrew and Jon Erwin and starring Rachel Hendrix in her film debut. It is the story of a young woman named Hannah, who learns that she was almost aborted as a baby in the womb. She then embarks upon a road trip to understand the circumstances of her birth.
This is a powerful movie that shows how God can bring beauty from our most painful experiences. I was concerned how the film would portray this difficult, sensitive and polarizing issue, but it was well-balanced and exhibited compassion for every character. I found myself completely caught up in the story and never got the feeling that the movie was dragging.

Mytical and wonderful : nevermore

What:drama
Who:my family and I
When:Oct.27th

Nevermore is Written by Charleston Stage Founder and Producing Director Julian Wiles.From the master of the macabre comes the haunting tale of Edgar Allan Poe's own mysterious death and disappearance. With scenes from such tantalizing Poe tales as The Pit and the Pendulum and The Masque of the Red Death, Nevermore takes us to 1827 Sullivans Island, where young Edgar Allan Poe served in the army at Ft. Moultrie and penned such classics as The Gold Bug.

Inside the historical and magnificent building, This is the first time I see the American drama, it deeply strikes me. I feel the richness of local culture.
