The Museum of Contemporary Art is quite differernt from the pieces of art found in the collections at the Art Institute of Chicago. In this museum, there lies many pieces of abstract and modern art that involves the visitors to experience more than the visual sense. For instance there is one room in which there are lots of comfy pillows on the floor for you to sit on surrounding a large glowing yellow sphere and in the head phones there is a heart beat sound. And for the shock and awe, there was a piece with animal skins hanging from the ceiling with video monitors showing the harvesting of animal pellets. I found this museum quite interesting as i went here for a undergraduate trip for my art class.
