Museum of American Art

This module''s AP assignment gives you a chance to evaluate two works of art using the methods of art criticism explained in Chapter 13. You will be writing an essay (800 - 1200 words). You will employ two different methods of critical theory--one for each work you choose.

Step 1: Research

Using your ART 110 Research Guide, visit the sources of your choice and find one work of art that fascinates you. Because you are going to put some of your art critic skills to work, include biographical research in your study. In addition research the era in which the work was created.

Next, choose one work of art from Artforms that we have already studied. Upload a saved image from your database choice in your document, including the necessary caption and credit. You will not have an image from the textbook, but you will identify and refer to the specific piece in your writing.

Step 2: Writing

Essay

A. Write an effective introduction with a strong thesis statement that identifies the specific works you will be writing about, the artists who created them, and which methods of critical theory you will be employing for each one.

B. Describe the first work using the vocabulary relevant to the medium, and describe the imagery using the principles of design and elements of art. Next, utilize one method of critical theory (Formal, Contextual, or Expressive) to evaluate your first work. This section of your essay should include at least two substantive paragraphs.

C. Describe the second work using the same approach as in "B," but choose a different method of critical theory to perform your evaluation.

D. Conclude by explaining why you felt your chosen approaches provided the best means of examining and understanding these works of art.

Note: To measure your progress in this course, you may also return the Module 1 discussion forum "What is Art" and reevaluate two works you felt strongly about but did not fully understand. In your conclusion, explain how your perceptions and opinions changed.
