Write about huntington library
Step 1
Spend a good amount of time with each piece within the exhibition and try to get a sense of overall themes. Also, ask yourself what the curators were trying to accomplish by ordering or arranging the paintings in the fashion that they did. Once you have a more broad apprehension of the show, go back to specific works that stood out to you. Take detailed notes on these pieces as they will mostly be the subjects you refer to in your review.
Step 2
Get some information on the gallery. Usually, art galleries or museums carry a certain type of work. More conceptual galleries usually organize exhibitions around certain important issues often topical or contemporary ones. Other galleries or museums that specialize in certain mediums generally are more interested in specific technical features of the work. Of course, much of this can be inferred from the exhibit itself. If it is a smaller gallery or museum, consider including some of this information in your final piece.
Step 3
Review the attached article on how to write an art review, choose an exhibit and submit your review a two to three page paper.

Geographies of Wonder
May 14 - Sept 03, 2016
Library West Hall
Geographies of Wonder: Origin Stories of America's National Parks, 1872-1933.
In a wide-ranging examination of the evolving role of the national parks in American life, The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens will commemorate the centennial of the U.S. National Parks Service in exhibitions that run consecutively from May 2016 through February 2017 in the West Hall of the Library building. The exhibitions will touch on a variety of roles the National Parks have played over time as scenic wonderlands that have become iconic markers and essential destination points for tourists, adventure-seekers, scientists, government surveyors, businessmen, and explorers of all stripes. The exhibitions also will examine the tensions that emerged as a result of diverging priorities and competing agendas.
