Blog: Visiting International Museums from Home at Brickell Flatiron
10/28/2020
Miami is home to one of the world’s most bustling art scenes, from the annual Art Basel extravaganza in Miami Beach to the 50-plus blocks of outdoor art in the Wynwood Arts District — not to mention the exciting galleries and Art Deco architecture dotting the landscape. But at this particular time, residents of the Brickell Flatiron condos might prefer to experience art from the comfort and safety of their homes. With that in mind, here is a sampling of virtual exhibits now available from the world’s most famed museums.
The online tour at Mexico’s Museo Nacional de Antropología provides access to the permanent exhibition rooms, where guests can explore the history of the museum, and view works representing cultures and traditions from around the world. In the room highlighting the Americas, visitors can see pottery from pre-Hispanic traditions and religious artifacts from Haiti. The Philippines room explores the diverse influences that led to the silks and piña (cloth made from pineapple leaves) of traditional Philippine dress, and presents displays on music, games, and domestic life in the archipelago today and historically. The virtual visit offers information about exhibitions and objects as you “approach” them, making for an informative and immersive experience.
Korea’s national art museum, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, offers a perfectly curated glimpse into the country’s art and culture. A virtual tour — available on the museum site, as well as via Google Arts & Culture — spans the institution’s survey of modern painting and photography, and its collection of Buddhist hanging scrolls and artifacts. The museum has also made available a series of exhibition videos with English subtitles on its YouTube channel, and will be offering its exhibition “Reframing the Horizon of Crafts in Korea 1950-1970” in virtual reality.
Wherever residents of the Brickell Flatiron condos in Miami choose to make their virtual museum visits, immersive and satisfying explorations of art, history, and culture await.
