The museum itself shares with visitors the life in Alaska. It is not only focusing on wildlife and nature but also on culture. There are and were many social and populations groups in this 49th State: Indians, Eskimo’s, Native Americans and Russians. The Russians were in Alaska to hunt animals for their fur. Once the wildlife was thinned to the extreme, the Russians lost interest in Alaska. Today you still see in each city fur shops which is cruel but also understandable in a region where temperatures drop below minus 50.
Many of the Alaskan immigrants came here to search for gold and natural resources. Some of them became super rich, most of them did it in vain. A more modern exhibition was the Rose Berry Art Gallery with a very nice statue of a bear. Some of the paintings also grabbed our attention.
Op de universiteitscampus van Fairbanks vind je het modern gebouw van Museum of the North. Het is een ongelooflijk bouwwerk in blinkend wit met onconventionele vormen, bogen, driehoeken en cirkelvormige open ruimtes binnen in. Gewoon spectaculair.
Het museum deelt het leven van Alaska met zijn bezoekers. Niet alleen richtend op de wilde dieren en de natuur maar ook op de cultuur. Er waren en zijn veel verschillende bevolkingsgroepen in deze 49de Staat: indianen, Eskimo’s, geboren Amerikanen en Russen. De Russen waren in Alaska voor de jacht op dieren omwille van het bont. Eens de meeste dieren uitgeroeid waren verloren de Russen hun interesse in Alaska. Vandaag zie je nog steeds bontwinkels in iedere stad, een teken van wreedheid maar ook soms begrijpelijk daar hier de temperaturen soms kouder als minus 50 graden worden.
Vele van de immigranten kwamen hier voor hun zoektocht naar goud of andere natuurlijke rijkdommen. Sommigen werden stinkend rijk, voor de meesten was het echter een verloren zaak. Een meer moderne tentoonstelling stond in de Rose Berry galerij met een heel leuk beeldhouwwerk van een beer. Enkele schilderwerken grepen onze aandacht.

ReplyDeleteHello, I am Theresa Williams After being in relationship with Anderson for years, he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem. His email: {drogunduspellcaster@gmail.com} you can email him if you need his assistance in your relationship or any other Case.
