DUE DATE!!! 2018/3/29 at 8 pm (CST)
Instruction
Take notes and photos (if permitted) of all of the pieces you are interested in discussing in writing (whether you dislike or like the work)
· Decide which single piece you are going to investigate and discuss
· Begin investigating and exploring the piece (think about the theories of criticism: formal, expressive, and contextual), use the rubric as a guide
· Get the facts, analyze the work, evaluate and thoroughly discuss your findings and your personal ideas about the piece of art
This is not simply a fact finding mission, once you have all the background and factual information you should begin to form your own thoughtful opinions about the work, discussing what you believe the piece means to you, why it is relevant.
Remember, if you are using someone else’s information or not using your own words you must correctly cite your source (otherwise you are stealing and plagiarizing, which will result in an F)!
Paper must be double spaced and at least two pages long, excluding images, citation, and any additional information that you include.
· The introductory paragraph should briefly discuss the exhibition and art and the piece you chose
· Followed by a discussion on the specific artist and their work of art (fact based) (use the theories of criticism)
· Discuss your ideas about the work of art, make sure to thoroughly support the ideas with facts
