                        The Dinner Party  by Judy Chicago

In the Dinner Party from Judy Chicago my experience so far from what i see in person in video is completed different. i expected the place to be bigger. so at some point a little disappointed for that. apart from that i can say that sewing part and the design are completed different and accurate according the design and the person each one where represent.  Apart of the dinner party in went to the 3 floor to see some paintings likes Pablo Picasso, and carvings using wax on wood like Woman Earrings and  the Statue of queen Ankhnes- Meryre 2 and her son Pepy 2
