Blog # 8: Reflection of brief visit to the Cultural Center

I went few times in that museum and found it boring. However, this exhibition is defferent. I found things that interested me as design. It also questionned me about the place of a black person in the world of design and creation. May be black people are not really represented in design firms, but they are relly creative. I think it is an important exhibition. I enjoyed it.
I hope to see more thigs like that soon.

My favorite color

I wear lot of grey clothes. Because it makes me feel simple. However I like bright colors. It is a big paradox. I like flashy yellow or green. Orange is my favorite one I can say. As colorful image, I really like the painting '' Dynamism of a Soccer Player '' of Umberto BOCCIONI. All the bright colors that I like are there. Their symbiosis also show the dynamism an ;movement that BOCCIONI needed to express. The futurism movement know how to use color for me. They use it to show other things. It is reference in terms of colors. Dynamism of a Soccer Player, Umberto BOCCIONI, 1913
