Brooklyn Museum

i went to the brooklyn museum of art by myself two weeks ago. they were setting up for a "first saturday" event. i wasn't too impressed. i asked for directions for the correct line to get tickets. i was told the incorrect line twice. the museum layout seemed okay. it was a little too spread out for my liking. also, a lot of the main passageways were blocked off. i am not sure if this is from the setup for the event that night or if it was just under construction. the artifacts were nice. nothing too special, it seemed. it seemed like a smaller version of the artifacts at the MET or the british museum. i did go see a special exhibit on utagawa: masters of the japanese print, 1770-1900 . it was pretty good. it didn't flow particuarly well. it didn't flow chronologically at all. it split into parts and if you went to the left, you eventually hit the other part of the exhibit going in the reverse...if that makes sense. times visited: 1 time in
