Comments

This creation is an exercise in contrasts.  The emptiness of the room is contrasted 
with the intricacy of the paintings and the material patterns of the structure, thereby 
enhancing the viewer’s experience.  Benches on the back wall invite the viewer to relax, 
enjoy, and even honor the great artists of early Modern Art History.  The subtle walls
allow the viewer to visually navigate through the works of Picasso, van Gogh, Monet, 
Hokusai, Pollock, and Matisse without being distracted by noisy patterns or 
extraneous objects.  Nevertheless, the room is not unworthy of these masterpieces.  
Golden stands lie interspersed throughout the room, guarding the masterpieces behind 
sloping velvet ropes.  In addition, the floor offers a pleasing combination of wood trim 
and checkered tiles, while the walls provide a subtly textured background and the ceiling 
provides a rich tile pattern.  Given freedom to navigate within the confines of the room, 
the user can appreciate the intricate details of the paintings, and their contrasting
environ, at near and far views.
