Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive

I have been visiting BAMPFA for the past few months on the first Thursday of the month (which is free admission day). I always find their exhibits interesting, if not interesting. The building is impressive, with gallery spaces ranging in size from private to sponge-like, allowing each space to be scaled perfectly to present the work. Their permanent collection contains gems that are not permanently displayed but are mixed with loans in temporary exhibitions on the theme. The staff at the front desk and bookstore are very helpful. Considering that BAMPFA is not the main museum, I found their bookstore/gift shop very good. I would definitely recommend visiting on these free days. I never actually paid the admission fee, but I think it's worth it, especially for those who aren't in town on these free Thursdays.

The Tapestry in Fig. 1 was bought by J. P. Morgan. The Tapestry in Fig. 2 is an actress in an era when the actress's profession is particularly disgraceful. She wears Saint Catherine, a woman with special beliefs and pursuits, to express her self-cultivation as an actress. The color of copper in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 can be compared directly to represent the color of a woman's skin. The outward expression is hope to resonate with the audience and get some sympathy, while the marble texture and the man's restrained expression - that is, no expression, represents that he is living well in his own world, and does not need to interact with the audience. The other two pictures, the understander understands naturally, the understander like me

The collection here is still very rich, India, China, Laos and other countries are rich in Buddhist art, which also displays ancient Chinese paintings. The museum is not free. It's about a few dollars. Bookstores in museums can buy Monographs on Chinese Art. There are occasional temporary art exhibitions.

It is worth seeing, and exhibitions and events in various art forms are often held.

The Berkeley Museum of Art and the Pacific Film Archives are located on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley. The buildings are characteristic and primitive. There are many collections of film materials, especially early movies. We didn't open up when we went, just looked at the introduction outside.
