Problem
You should choose either a modern artist or a modern theme. Project must analyze a visual art - a either painting, sculpture, architecture, or any form which can be analyzed using the terms discussed in chapters two and three. Photography, performance art, fashion, etc. are all acceptable - but your analysis must focus on the visual elements. Verify your topic with me so we are in agreement that it is acceptable.
Thesis: you should write an analysis - here are some sample approaches
1) History/overview of a modern form of art - its origins, influences, connections to past styles etc - look at specific examples of the form and explain its key characteristics
2) The influence of a style of art on a modern artist in another field - for example, the influence of realism on a photographer, the influence of a modern style of art on a fashion designer - these topics would require research obviously Ex: Pop Art and Pucci.
3) One modern artist and a reoccurring theme in their work - look at several works and compare/contrast them - example - Cindy Sherman a contemporary photographer and her images of women as victims, Ansel Adams and American destiny
4) Tracing a particular symbol or image - food, beauty, venus etc - in more than one time period - comparing/contrasting use Example: Venus through the Ages
