My time as a McDermott Intern at the Dallas Museum of Art is drawing to a close. Along with my seven fellow interns who began at the DMA in September, I will be walking the galleries with the McDermott title for the last time next Friday afternoon. I have had amazing experiences while working at the Museum and getting to know the collection, and even though I will only be moving up the road to UTD as I finish my Master’s degree this summer, I felt a ceremonial goodbye way in order, the best way I knew how. Here are a few of my favorite works of art at the museum and my loving tribute to them!
Emma-O, the Japanese Buddhist Judge of the Dead
Untitled (Perfect Lovers) by Félix González-Torres
Luba Arrow Holder with Head and Three Prongs
Rembrandt Peale's Porthole Portrait of George Washington
Emblem by Sam Francis
Hindu God Shiva Nataraja, Lord of the Dance
