The goals of a critical essay are to evaluate and analyze the works of art based on research using the terms, phrases, and concepts that you have learned throughout the course.

Then, you can search other Internet sources for his or her other works of art. Writing the Critical Essay Use the following as a guide to help you write your critical essay: Begin with a thesis statement. Include an introduction that lists the 3 artworks (author and date of work) and explains the style and the theme of the artworks. Discuss why you chose these 3 works of art. Describe each work of art by explaining the following (do not simply list the information): What are the materials used? What is the size? What is the subject matter? (What is literally depicted?) What is the focal point? What is the content? (What is the meaning or message?) What are the dominant colors? Is there symbolism? If so, what does it represent? What are the defining characteristics of the particular style? Discuss the artists. Include a summary of the artists' personal philosophies of art and the prevailing trends and schools of thought in the art world at the time. Was the artist reacting to events of the time period?

Due by 9 pm! Must include references, no plagiarism. Assignment 2: Changes in Religious Art You likely noticed that during the three hundred years covered in this week’s study that religious art remained quite important just as it had been in earlier “art ages.” There were monumental changes, however, in the way the religious subjects were depicted. Use the textbook and/or online sources to locate and capture three works of religious art. All three pieces should be dealing with the same subject matter— for example, the Crucifixion, mother and child, or the Last Supper. Capture one image from each: the Early Renaissance period the High Renaissance period the Baroque period Your works of art must either be all paintings or all sculptures. (Do not use the three David sculptures from Assignment 1 as your comparisons.) Place these images in a Word document. Then do the following: Identify each image with the following information: Name of the artist Title of the work Date of the work Medium/materials used to create the work Current location In a well-developed paragraph (4–6 sentences) for each: One to two important historical facts about each piece. Describe and analyze how the artist has used at least one of the artistic elements, such as color, composition, or use of light, supporting your observation using vocabulary from this week's reading. You should focus on the same element for all 3 works. In a 6–10-sentence concluding paragraph(s) discuss specifically how religious art has changed compared to each period and geographical region, and what may have been influencing factors behind these changes. How has religious art changed compared to each, based on your observations as to how each artist used the art element you have focused on exploring? What events in history may have been influencing factors behind these changes, and why? Offer a citation of your sources for each image and the information provided as appropriate. .

As a way of experiencing the Humanities beyond your classroom, c.docx

wraythallchan

As a way of experiencing the Humanities beyond your classroom, computer, and textbook, you are asked to attend a “cultural event” and report on your experience. This assignment requires the following: Submit your cultural event choice to the instructor for approval before the end of Week 5. Visit a museum or gallery exhibition of modern art before the end of Week 9. Write a report of the visit. Summarize the report in a PowerPoint presentation. **Please be sure to use a gallery or museum from Columbia SC** Write a three to four (3-4) page paper (750-1,000 words) in which you: Identify the date visited, location, name, and background of the museum or specific exhibition. (If virtual, identify the Website along with the other information.) Describe three (3) works, noting the artist, title, subject, and the time period of each work. Compare the style, influences, and meaning or intent of each piece, highlighting any changes (if any) from the first to last piece. Explain your reasons for selecting the pieces in a discussion of the reasons for the artist’s popularity and / or impact on the art world. Summarize the main points of three (3) works discussed in your paper in a PowerPoint presentation of at least three (3) slides. Each of the slides should have three to four (3-4) short bullet points and notes about the works in the slide notes section. Include a cover page for the PowerPoint. Add the slides with notes to your paper. Include four (4) references that help support your claims. (The text may be used as one (1) reference.) Visiting a Museum It makes sense to approach a museum the way a seasoned traveler approaches visiting a city for the first time. Find out what is available to see. In the museum, find out what sort of exhibitions are currently housed in the museum and start with the exhibits that interest you. If there is a travelling exhibition, it’s always a good idea to see it while you have the chance. Then, if you have time, you can look at other things in the museum. Make notes as you go through the museum and accept any handouts or pamphlets that the museum provides free. While you should not quote anything from the printed material when you do your report, the handouts may help to refresh your memory later. The quality of your experience is not measured by the amount of time you spend in the galleries or the number of works of art that you actually see. The most rewarding experiences can come from finding three (3) pieces of art or exhibits that intrigue you and then considering those works in leisurely contemplation. Most museums even have benches where you can sit and study a particular piece. If you are having a difficult time deciding which pieces to write about, ask yourself these questions: (1) If the museum you are visiting suddenly caught fire, which three (3) pieces of art or exhibits would you most want to see saved from the fire? (2) Why would you choose those two (2) particular pieces? .

Assignment 3: Artistic Change in Sculpture During Prehistory Relative to human history, the period covered in this week's study is long. During this lengthy span of years, not only did people change in appearance, but the way they lived also changed radically. What we have found of their art and architecture also demonstrates an evolution in these areas. Search for three images of Paleolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age, or Iron Age prehistoric sculpture using any of the Web sites listed under Prehistoric Art on the Art History Resources Web site . View these sculpture pieces carefully. Choose three images that represent three different periods from the four we have studied this week. Capture the images and place them in chronological order, from oldest to newest, in this template . Then, using information from your textbook, lectures, and other appropriate academic sources, provide the following regarding each image: The title of the work, its location, the materials used to create the work (if known), and the date. A brief assessment of the physical properties you observe. Describe the types of lines, shapes, colors, and textures (actual and perceived) the artist has used. An analysis of the formal structure of each piece. How has the artist arranged and organized the artistic elements to create a cohesive composition? The natural subject of each piece. Based on your textbook reading and Internet research, are there any details that have a symbolic meaning? If so, what? A five- to seven-sentence paragraph that discusses the cultural context of each work, based on what you have learned through your textbook reading, the online lectures, and Internet research. What do the images tell you about the culture and the people who created them? List of references, including the specific websites where you found the images. .

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.

Art museums and art galleries are two different types of entitie.docx

ssusera34210

Art museums and art galleries are two different types of entities. The primary difference is that while one goes to an art museum to view art and learn about art from an educational or cultural experience; one goes to an art gallery to view art, discover new artists, possibly from the perspective of purchasing the art. Most museums are funded by governments, foundations, and corporate and private donors, and they are operated on a non-for-profit basis. Galleries seek to make profit and gain exposure for themselves and the artists they represent.Art galleries, are usually small businesses or centers that exhibit art for the purposes of promoting and selling art. One would typically visit an art gallery to discover an artist, possibly with an interest in buying the art. Art museums, on the other hand, are larger and are intended for education and cultural experiences. One would typically visit an art museum to view and study its permanent collection or to visit a touring exhibit of works on loan from another museum or institution.

Research & Reflect Project Bringing Music of the Past into the .docx

syreetamacaulay

Research & Reflect Project: Bringing Music of the Past into the Present Project Description For your written project this semester, you will be asked to research and reflect on the following question: How is music of the past relevant in today’s world? For this class, we will define “music of the past” as any aspect of music dating from Antiquity to 1750, and “today’s world” as the world during your lifetime. You are free to focus on what you personally relate to and see as most relevant to the present. Your goals will be: -to learn more about a specific area of music history through research -to write a coherent and convincing paper -to relate academic work to your personal experiences and/or interests -to think creatively about history a)-Research (50%) Choose one specific area of music from Antiquity to 1750 that you find most interesting and perceive to be relevant in today’s world. Then research that specific area of early music to the point that you can discuss it accurately in 5 pages of your paper. DO NOT research repertory in NAWM –this is your opportunity to explore beyond what is covered in class! Suggested Topic Categories: Note that for each category, you will need to narrow your focus to one or two specific examples from before 1750 . --music sponsorship and/or entrepreneurship --music and technology --musical notation or transmission --music and politics or propaganda --music and religious reform --music and ritual or piety --music and emotions --music and other art forms --performance practices or conventions --a musical event or venue --a musical ensemble or organization --a compositional technique or expressive device --a pedagogical method --a theoretical principle --a musical philosophy or idea The possibilities are limitless! Don’t hesitate to meet with me if you need help focusing your interests or simply brainstorming. b)-Personal Reflection (50%) Reflect on how the pre-1750 area of music you have researched is relevant in today’s world. This portion of your paper should consist of your personal ideas and observations, not research. You are free to interpret “today’s world” from any perspective, such as: a personal MHL 341 2 experience or interest, an aspect of your anticipated musical career, an aspect of the local community or your “home” environment, world events or issues (from your lifetime), a trend in present-day society, a music scene or venue you identify with, a particular use or style of music, etc. As you express your ideas in 5 pages of your paper, be sure to organize your thoughts logically and to connect them as clearly as possible to the material you have researched. Try to focus on one or two main ideas, which you can develop into a coherent statement that includes specific examples . A few strategies you might consider: --Discuss a parallel phenomenon (e.g.: compare a medieval ruler’s use of music for political purposes to the use of ...

Your three (3) works of art should come from the time periods or art movements covered in the reading from Unit 4 and Unit 5. Your choices must comply with the following criteria: · The 3 artworks chosen must be of the same style or time period. For example, you can choose one of the following suggestions: · 3 Baroque works of art, or · 3 Impressionist works of art, or · 3 Abstract Expressionist works of art, etc. · Your three (3) works of art should have a similar theme. For example: 3 landscapes, or 3 works that focus on religious content, etc. · Outof the three works of art by the three (3) artists selected,you must choose at least two (2) works from two artists discussed in the textbook. · If you decide to choose one work of art that is not from the textbook, the artists must be discussed in the text. Begin your search by reviewing artists in the text. Then you can search other Internet sources for their other works of art. This project is broken down into two parts. 1. In Unit 4, you will work on the first three bullet points, which are highlighted in bold below, as well as an introduction and conclusion. 2. The "final draft," will be completed for Unit 5, and will cover the last two bullet points (listed in the Unit 5 Individual Project assignment). Your final paper will be a 1200–1500 word critical essay about the three works of art you have chosen. The goals of a critical essay are to evaluate and analyze the artworks based on research, using the vocabulary and concepts you have learned. Your attitude should be detached (i.e., your personal opinions are not as important as academic concepts; The "critical" aspect of the essay refers to this detached attitude, not whether you react positively or negatively to the works). Your essay must include the following points: 1. A description of the works including the style. Describe basic facts, as well as the visual appearance of the work (What does the viewer see? Where are key figures located? What tells us that the work is of a particular style?) 2. A summary of the artists' personal philosophies of art (if they can be found in published sources), and the prevailing trends and schools of thought in the art world at the time and in the place the artist was working. For instance, discuss what was taking place in each artist's city, country, and/or church that may have provoked a reaction from the artist or the greater society. Include any information that might help the reader understand the artist's point of view or why the artist made his or her choices in this work of art. 3. An explanation of how the works fit into the context of the time period. 4. Compare the three works in terms of form, content, and subject matter. Using the terminology and concepts that you have learned in the course, explain the similarities and differences in the styles of the wo ...

Total: 30 points maximum This field trip provides students with a visual experience of art in its present medium, rather than by slides or copies in books, etc. Students completing this field trip will explore the Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla and demonstrate the ability to express a critical analysis by addressing the following specific questions and taking personal notes on the exhibition. Assignment (written paper format in paragraphs) Complete ALL parts in any order. Part I – The Uses of Photography: Art, Politics and the Reinvention of a Medium (9/24/2016 – 1/2/2017) The Uses of Photography examines a network of artists who were active in San Diego between the late 1960s and early 1980s and whose experiments with photography opened the medium to a profusion of new strategies and subjects. Working within the framework of conceptual art, these artists introduced urgent social issues and themes of everyday life with photographic works that took on hybrid forms, from books and postcards to video and text-and-image installations. Tracing a crucial history of photo-conceptual practice, The Uses of Photography focuses on an artistic community that formed in and around the University of California San Diego (UCSD), founded in 1960, and its visual arts department, founded in 1967. 1. Select three works of art in different media, such as photographic series, slide projection, video, audio recordings, artist’s books, installation or ephemeral (temporary) from three different artists. Remember to state each artist’s name, title, medium used and date. 2. Describe each selected work of art noticing the strongest visual elements, such as line, value (light & shadow), stopped time or kinetic, color, visual texture, etc. and/or principles of design, such as emphasis, rhythm, balance, unity & variety, scale or proportion. What makes each selected work of art effective? 3. What do you see as the social or political message of each selected work? Did the artist’s message prove to be true as time passed? 4. What symbolism or metaphors did your selected artist use to engage viewers? Part II – Berkeley Protest Posters (9/24/2016 -1/2/2016) 1. Select two posters which you feel captures the mood of each decade of the 1960s and 1970s. Remember to state the artist’s name, title, medium used and date. 2. Did you notice a poster which was appropriated? Explain the appropriation (as to the original idea and the new concept). State the artist’s name, title, medium used and date. Research and state the original artist, title of work, medium and date. 3. Research Malaquias Montoya and his influence on the Berkeley Protest Posters of the 1970s. What did you find as important contributions of Montoya and the poster movement itself? Part III - Edwards Sculpture Garden 1. Venture into the outdoor sculpture garden (downstairs, facing the ocean). 2. Select two works of art. Remember to state the artist’s name, title of work, medium used and date, (fo ...

HUM 200 Pr

NarcisaBrandenburg70

HUM 200 Project Part One: Exploration Document Guidelines and Rubric Overview We all share common experiences that can be generally classified within the major themes of art. Examples of these themes include love, mortality, identity, truth, and beauty. The representation of these themes through various media reveals central beliefs shared by a common people. The comparison of objects from the humanities with similar themes helps to uncover not only the uniqueness of each respective cultural artifact, but also a shared human consciousness that transcends time and place. Your project for this course has two parts. In Project Part One, you will complete an exploration document examining two cultural artifacts that you select, identifying a theme common to both of them and developing a thesis statement related to the theme and artifacts. You will also identify an audience who would be interested in your artifacts, theme, and thesis statement. In Project Part Two, you will develop a presentation for your audience. In your presentation, you will discuss the impact of the cultural artifacts, theme, and thesis statement on both individuals and society, supporting your claims with evidence. You will also explain how study of the humanities has impacted you both personally and professionally. In Project Part One, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:  Illustrate the impact of the humanities on personal and professional experiences  Select appropriate and relevant resources in the humanities in investigating expressions of human creativity  Communicate effectively to specific audiences in examining fundamental aspects of human culture  Apply essential principles of the humanities in exploring major themes of human culture and creativity Prompt Choose two cultural artifacts to analyze. These artifacts may take the form of any artistic medium, such as literature, poetry, music, film, dance, painting, and sculpture, and so on. Then, identify a common theme and compare your examples to one another as expressions of the same theme in different cultural artifacts. Chapters 3 through 6 in the Soomo webtext will walk you through this process. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Describe the cultural artifacts that you chose. Consider questions such as these in your response: What is the name or title of the artifact? Who is the author or artist? What is the date or time period when the artifact was created? What is the cultural location or physical setting of the artifact? In addition, you could consider including a photograph or image of each cultural artifact, if they are visual artifacts. II. Identify at least one common theme that will serve as the framework of your exploration document. How is the theme expressed in your artifacts? 1 III. Explain how the theme you identified is related to your personal experience. ...

Throughout the semester, we looked at many issues that artists have .docx

herthaweston

Throughout the semester, we looked at many issues that artists have addressed in their work over the last several decades. Some issues could be considered political, such as race, gender, sexuality, identity, etc., some personal and autobiographical, some formal, regarding art itself as a subject. Curators have attempted to make sense of artists' work by organizing exhibitions of work that, together, help viewers think about issues and ideas important to the artists. In turn, these curators and their exhibitions also make statements relevant, possibly significant, to broader society and culture. For your final paper, you will be the curator. You will propose an exhibition of at least three artists, no more than five, and write an accompanying catalog essay. The essay will give viewers of the exhibition an overview of how the work all ties together--a thesis--and the ideas explored by the individual artists. most of them are lecture video transcript, pick the core concepts and justify it in the essay .
