#4 water taxi reflection

The experience of a water taxi was quiet nice. It was the first activity of outside class with my classmates. I felt that we need to get close more and more. They all were kind of quiet and need to be unity together.

 The cost is only 2 dollars for riding taxi, and it takes 10 minutes. However, there is no guide for explanation the buildings so if you need to hear about buildings, get a cruise then it costs more than water taxi and takes over 30 minutes.

 The day we rode on was so nice outside. it was a little bit hot but since we took the taxi, it was cool.    

(Wrigley building on Michigan ave.)

 My favorite building around the river was The Wrigley building. It has a clock on the top of it faced pointing all the directions so that people can see the time while they walk or work, because in the past, there was no carriage watch. 
  

#3 Art project (Andy warhol)

Andy Warhol, His actual name is Andrew Warhol. He was born in Warhola on august 6^th in 1928. He grew up in Pittsburgh and moved to New York to be successful as a commercial artist. He got hired in New York magazine, called ‘Bazaar’ as a graphic designer and finally got huge successful. Everyone recall him first when people think about a pop art. No doubt that he made the word of pop art.  

The objects and subjects that he used for his works are so ordinary and not special so that we can see in a daily such as bottle of coca-cola, canned of soups and banana. Those are really simple and familiar for us but it’s still famous because it showed that it also could be a part of art.

In addition, He like using for his works well-known generally of issues, major accidents and incidents of pop stars’ or famous works from the past.

He also used silk screen a production method mechanically. Using a silk screen, it is hard to figure out who is maker, able to guarantee anonymities and also possible to make limitless copies.

As he followed repeating the images and changing them simply forms, have no meaning, no feeling that the object and subject actual have had.

Not only he did activities for flat works by a silk screen but also he expand to movies, magazine, even cable broadcasting so he showed us the art doesn’t need to be limited to just part of an art.  

#2 architectural experience

  There are varieties of architectures in Chicago. One of my favorites is, called Wills tower. It is a building that make me feel like i have acrophobia. I have gone there for a couple of times to go seeing the view of beautiful Chiago's night on the top of the buliding.
  It is very famous because it has a glass balcony extending four feet outside the 103rd floor. So people can stand on a glass and see all the way bottom to the ground from the top of the buliding, also visitors are allowed to take pictures that is why it is very popular for tourists.
  When i visit there at first, i thought i could stand on a glass and would make me scared a little but it was not. It actually made me so freaked out. It was too high that i couldn't barely see the outside of buliding. All i wanted to do was just to take a picture for quick. I shouldn't have watched all the way the bottom of it, i've never felt so dizzy like that with a high but it made me felt that i was almost going to collapsed. My legs were shacking. i couldn't open my eyes, and hardly made a pose. i really wanted to give it up. But one of my best, so nice and kind friends!! kept letting me do take a picture standing there. i was almost killed her. i just made a quick picture and left for the next person to take it, it didn't matter if or not, picture was good. For my friend, she was like so brave that she made me fool and all my acts up there was nothing. She didn't feel anything up there. 
  The second time i visit there, i just took pictures for my friends. That was all i did the best because it was scared me last time and i already took the picture so didn't need once more again. However, i bet the view is still amazing both in the day time and the night time.          

#1 Shin yun-bok (korean artist)

Shin yun-bok was a korean artist back in time in 18th century. He was well-known by his pen name Hyewon. He was born in 1758. All korean have heard about his name and his works and studied at least once. However, not much is known about Shin Yun-bok's life. Some people have been still arguing that he could be a woman because his works have an atmosphere of refinement that never men can do. In addition, he often used delicate and elegant drawing lines for giving effective results of romantic atmospheres and relationships between male and female.

 I really like his works because he had drawn genre paintings so that people could know our customs of ancestors and life that they had been living and clothes or fashions in the past. The colors are so colorful but not that showy and the drawing is so gorgeous and clear such as lines, expressions of each of persons face and acts.
