Similar to peeking in windows, another guilty pleasure in which I find myself, is that of “observing” other visitors while in museums, exhibits or at a popular venue where people gather to communicate with art or explore a popular site.
Watching visitors’ reactions to a painting, object, or even a building can be rather entertaining; some people ponder, or smile; others look confused, while others feel romance.... The emotions are really quite varied....It frequently appears that viewers react similarly to the object they are looking at---so next time you drop by a museum, exhibit, etc., keep an eye on the visitors as well as the items or scene you came to see – it’s free for the price of admission....(and maybe they are watching you)......Written by and for the former staff of UNICEF
Thanks for sharing - one of the most fun things about museums for me is people watching. I would probably relish a job as a museum guard just to watch people all day - but I would likely not enforce all the rules.
ReplyDeleteThis is a terrific photo montage and will certainly be on my mind at my next museum visit. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI liked most the one
ReplyDeleteOf the perplexed nun,
Like someone pulled a gun
On her and started to run,
She doesn’t think it’s fun.
Why under the sun,
Paint a suit and not a bun?
This is not a pun,
And I think I am done.
