It is Art class not history.
Objective: Visiting an art museum is an enjoyable experience.
The main objective is for you to view artworks in person.
Describe and analyze what you view in a clearly written essay,
demonstrating knowledge gained in class.
1. Visit: "San Diego Museum of Art: El Prado, Balboa Park, San
Diego"
2. View the European Early Modern Collections, (Late 18th -
19th century Neo-Classicism through Post-Impressionism)
3. Write a 3 page report (typed, double-spaced, with a cover
page and staple) on what you have viewed. Organize your report
in the following manner:
Paragraph 1
:
Introduce your topic, including the name of the museum you
visited, its city and the date of your visit. Describe your overall
impression of the museum, including the architecture,
environment and collections.
Paragraph 2
:
Discuss your initial impression of the European Early Modern
Collections area (late 18
th
-19
th
century art).
If late 18
th
-19
th
century American Art is displayed at this museum, discuss that
area, too.
Note the exhibition design (how the artwork is displayed).
Highlight what impressed you (positively or negatively)
regarding the exhibition design. Are the spaces well designed
for the display of these important works?
Consider lighting, spacing, frames and overall display.
Paragraph
3:
Note your overall impression of the Early Modern Art
Collections (European, and possibly American).
Briefly mention a few Early Modern artworks.
Include the name of the artist, the title, century and medium).
Don’t simply list the works; explain what about these works
makes them most interesting to you.
How do these works relate to what we have been studying in
class?
Paragraphs 4 and 5:
Choose one favorite work from the European or American Early
Modern Collection to analyze in detail.
Be sure to choose a late 18
th
-19
th
century artwork by an artist listed on the Art 311 Slide List.
1. Identify the work by artist, title, medium, size and country-
of-origin.
2. Describe the work in detail.
Discuss the work both in terms of style and
content.
(Style refers to what the work looks like.
Content refers to the
meaning of the work, as expressed through the subject matter
and
iconography.)
What made you choose this particular work?
3. Apply appropriate terms and concepts that we have been
studying in
class.
4. What was the artist’s (and perhaps patron’s) intent?
Paragraph 6
: Conclusion
1. Note your personal opinions regarding the museum, its
collections and
your chosen artwork. What was your overall impression of the
museum and your visit?
2. Note the website address of the museum.
How did your museum visit
compare to the website?
Final Page
: Cite your sources!
This is not a research paper.
I want
your
impressions of what
you
viewed, not an art-historian’s research.
However, when you obtain information from the museum
plaques, docents, website, catalog or from any other source
(including your textbook or class lectures), you must note the
source in both the body of your essay (parenthetical notation is
OK) and in a Works Cited page at the end of your essay.
Use the MLA format to cite your sources.
Not citing ones sources is a type of plagiarism
.
If you do not cite your sources, you will receive no credit (a
grade of zero) for your report.
