For Art Lovers


Conversation Starters

  • Have you ever seen any of the world’s great masterpieces (Mona Lisa, The Starry Night, The Scream, Guernica, The Kiss, Girl with a Pearl Earring, The Last Supper, The Birth of Venus, Las Meninas and Creation of Adam)? If not, which would be your first choice? If yes, which one surprised you the most, and how?

  • Which painting would you add as another “great masterpiece”?

  • Has there been any piece of art that has resonated with you so strongly that you still remember? Was it a positive or negative reaction?

  • As children, we are encouraged to be artistic. When was the last time, as an adult, that you expressed yourself through art?

  • Did you know people spend an average of 20 seconds looking at a painting? Why do you think that is?
