Art is one of those things that tends to divide people. In crude terms, you either love it or hate it. Maybe it’s just me but I find it fascinating to observe the different approaches people have when visiting a museum. Obviously, these centers of culture and history don’t attract the haters but for everyone else, art is experienced in a variety of ways.
First of all, there’s the enthusiast. This is the person who makes their way slowly around the museum, reading every caption and standing, staring in front of every masterpiece. At the other end of the spectrum, you have the mad dasher. This is the person who walks around the whole museum in a matter of minutes, glancing at each piece without much interest in learning more about it. In the middle, there’s also the non-committer, who is a blend of the first two.
