Upon entering the exhibit there were a number of emotional responses that you would experience. the first would probably be astoundment, due to the fact that you rarely see such art and that to most it was a different type of art than what we are used to. There is also an element of amusment or disqust or sympathy, depending on which work you were looking at, as well as a penance of annoyance as well, as some works were annoying.
2. What is your emotional response upon leaving the exhibit? Please explain.
There really was no emotion upon leaving other than astonishment and surprise, as it was not what was expected.
3. Does emotion interact with reason, sense, perception and language for you in this exhibit? If so, how?
It does, as it does on everything as they are all intermingled. Emotion has an impact on what you perceive as well as on how you reason and the sense you feel for things as well as the language you use to describe it.
4. Is this an American culture exhibit? How might someone from a non-Western country respond to this exhibit? Why?
This is an American culture exhibit, but someone from a non-western country may enjoy the exhibit as some of the works are obviously anti-American, yet at the same time may perturb them, as it would be completely different from anything they have seen before.
5. Can one appreciate theatre, music and art using only the rational mind or must Emotion play a role? Explain.
Emotion must play a role, becasuse it is impossible for it not to, as they are all completely interconnected; It's one brain, not two, one for reason and the other for emotion.
