Virtual Museum Project Assignment 4

Final Essay

 

Requirements

The final typed paper should be a minimum of 2 to 3 pages in length using MLA 8 formatting. This is an essay so it should be constructed in the following manner:

• Introduce your artwork and the artist. Summarize the biographical information you gathered in your Oxford Art Online search or your Living with Art eBook.
• Use the completed Art Inquiry worksheet to construct at least one paragraph for each section of the four steps of art criticism: (description, interpretation, analysis and judgment). Summarize the information you gathered on the Art Analysis/Inquiry Worksheet in complete sentences (DO NOT LIST THE ITEMS – Summarize!)
• Finalize your essay with a summary of what you discovered in your research. Consider the following points:
  • Were you familiar with this artist or not?
  • How did the Oxford Art search inform and enhance your understanding of the artist – what was the most interesting thing(s) you discovered about this artist?
  • How did employing the methodology of the art inquiry process inform and enhance your understanding of the formal issues of the art work?
  • Was the initial interest in the subject matter or artist enhanced by this process of inquiry giving you a better understanding of the creative process, compositional elements, and historical context – this could be a yes or no – and explain why.
  • Include a works cited page, with a correct citation formatting, to cite your reference sources. This page does not count towards the 2-3 page requirement.
  • The final document must be a Microsoft Word .docx file format using MLA 8. If you do not have Microsoft Word you can download it for free – on the log in page of Blackboard on the right-hand side are instructions for obtaining a free download. No other file formats will be accepted. You should properly cite the Oxford Art Online article and any other material that you reference.
