Question

Okay so I had this assignment to do. A group of art museums wish to create exhibitions drawing from the paintings in their collections. The possible exhibitions could be 1) all the paintings from one time period, or 2) all the paintings from a given country, or 3) all the paintings of a certain painter, or 4) all the paintings of a certain genre such as Renaissance or Classical, or 5) all the paintings using a certain medium such as Oil or Watercolor, or 6) all the paintings in a certain size range. For each exhibition the output will be a list of paintings satisfying the requested category. Each museum has a list of paintings that are in a text file. This text file contains the necessary information for each painting with the number of paintings for that museum as the first line of the text file. The program should allow the user to continue creating exhibitions for as long as he wishes.

I'm not entirely sure on how to approach this problem. I was hoping someone could help me get started. And I'm not asking for the code. Just how should I start this? What algorithm would I use and how many classes should I use and what would they do? I have the textfiles already.

Here is a sample output:
