Unit 2  Due  Jan 18 2015

 This assignment has 2 parts.

Part 1

When you look at ancient art, particularly ancient sculpture, you see progression in how the body in motion is represented. For this assignment, find 3 different sculptures, all from the ancient period (created between 30,000 BCE and 500 CE), which show progression of how the body is depicted in motion. For example, your first sculpture may be largely stationary, the second shows some motion, while the third shows an active body.

You may choose examples of sculpture from any of the following museums:

A New York art museum

A Paris museum

Select galleries in a Washington, DC museum

A Boston Museum

Paste images of all 3 sculptures into a Word document, and include details about each work: the title of each sculpture, the artist (if known), the year made, the materials used, and the size of the work. Be sure to include a reference for each work, showing which museum it was found in. Present 2 or 3 paragraphs for each work that clearly describe what the viewer sees and the content of each work. Finally, choose 3 adjectives (for each work) that express the core ideas of what the works were intended to communicate or convey to the viewer.

Part 2

Create a simple drawing of each sculpture. Draw a line down each work to indicate the center of balance. Use arrows or lines with arrows to indicate the direction of motion and movement within the sculpture. Scan or photograph your drawings and paste them into the Word document from Part 1. You can insert images into documents by placing the cursor where you want the image to be, going to “Insert,” then choosing “Picture,” and selecting the picture from your computer. Be sure to scan or photograph your drawing first and upload it to your computer.

Part 3

For each sculpture that you have chosen, choose a photograph, cartoon, movie poster, or any other image which uses the same stance, or bears remarkable similarity to the sculpture you chose in Part 1. Present at least 1 of these modern-day equivalents, with appropriate comments discussing any relevant details.

Submit 1 Word document for this assignment.

You are required to comply with APA style format for quotations, internal citations, and a reference list. For additional information and resources on APA style, visit the APA section of the Library, which is available under Library Features.

This is a case study to help you discover connections between the appreciation of art and the workplaces and other spaces that people inhabit.

Part 1

The chief executive officer (CEO) of a pharmaceuticals company wants to invest in new architecture and art for the company headquarters. You have been chosen to recommend artwork for the new location. Review the following information in preparation for your work on the project:

Company Profile and Project Overview

Part 2

The vice president (VP) of human resources has asked you to develop some initial information in a report.

Answer the following questions keeping the project overview details in mind:

•What are 3 initial works, on the market, that you might suggest that the international company consider for acquisition or loan, and how much should the company budget for these works?

◦Look specifically at paintings, sculpture, and photography.

◦Use information from auction houses such as Auction House 1, Auction House 2, or others, along with other sources of art, sculpture, and photography for sale or lease.

•What security considerations would you have to take into account?

•What are the business advantages of an art collection? How does “art appreciation” extend to the business and professional world?

For each of the 3 pieces, create a brief informational card that might also go into a brochure, explaining the following, in a condensed form:

•The subject of the work

•The biography of the artist

•The techniques and media used

•Some key interpretive, historical, or descriptive information about the piece

Be sure to address the following questions:

•How do the characteristics and style fit the organization and environment?

•Where would you recommend they be placed, and why?

•Why might employees be interested in them?

Prepare your response as a report to the VP, using Word. Include photos of the recommended pieces of art. Be sure to include citations and references as needed, although it is not necessary to format this as an APA document.
