For me it is particular exhibits, the Phillips Collection Rothko room which I saw as a student in the late 60s was an early emotional experience. The Doris Salcedo exhibit at the ICA Boston was by far the most emotional experience ever. Especially the shoes. I also cried watching The Visitors by Ragnar Kjartansson at the ICA.

Which goes to show that an awful lot depends on good curation, lighting, installation.

Great piece. Setting me thinking about the works of art that have evoked similar feelings in me. Will circle back with a short list.
