Artist Essay – SEE BOTH ATTACHMENTS FOR INSTRUCTIONS & RUBRIC Choose any artist referenced in our textbook to research. ARTIST OPTIONS TO CHOOSE FROM: Johnannes Vermeer Gian Lorenzo Bernini Michelangelo Donatello William Hogarth Eugène Delacroix Jean-Honoré Fragonard Paper Directions This paper should be more than just being “about” the artist. More than a biography. Try to identify a theme or central idea about the artist or his/her artwork (your thesis) and then build the paper around that idea. Reference at least two individual artworks or bodies of work when supporting your thesis statement. Example of a thesis or central idea: Jane Doe, a contemporary still life photographer, smartly couples quirky visual symbols and objects together in her compositions to tell deeply personal, but universally relatable stories from her life. There is a rubric at the end of these directions that will help you structure your paper. You will need to find at least 3 academic and scholarly sources to document, and you will need to use the library. Don’t worry—you can access a great number of our library resources without leaving your home. It is vital that your sources are legitimate, though. I will check your sources. Use whatever citation style you wish—MLA, Chicago, APA. The library resources provided in the module will help you with this if you are unsure how to do this. Include a citation page. Your paper (introduction through conclusion) should be 2-3 pages in length (less than two is too short and more than three is too long) that are double spaced. The paper should be submitted as a .doc, .docx, or .rtf file. Please use a standard font like Times New Roman, Calibri, etc. at 12 points. Please, no funny business with the margins. The art works you reference in your paper should be included in an accompanying page. If you are referencing whole bodies of work rather than individual pieces, it may be simpler to provide me a weblink to view the pieces. The research you do should inform your thoughts and help you provide evidence that prove your thesis and that is what gets cited. The words should largely be your own. You absolutely should not simply copy and paste the words of another into your paper. Not cool. No. Canvas has a plagiarism tracker that flags likely plagiarized text, this software works incredibly well, and I will be unable to provide credit for a paper that doesn’t meet the academic honesty standards for original writing. At the collegiate level, you must be able to do the research and then transform that knowledge into your own thoughts and concepts. If you do include a direct quote, be sure to indicate that it is a quotation using quotation marks and then cite your source. The paper should be written well enough so that spelling, sentence structure and other basic mechanics of writing will not be a distraction to the reader. Pages: 2-3 pages for the introduction through conclusion. 1 page for citations Additional pages for reference images RUBRIC: SEE ATTACHED DOCUMENT!

please read the details carefully and provide all details. provide the work reference in MLA format at the end and please avoid any plagiarism. for the discussion paper you will need my first and second papers (all attached), and one of my classmate art discussion work (attached) to build up this discussion art paper (1200 words at least). second part is comments part, I will provide you two of my classmate work and for each one just make a comment of (400 words at least). For this second Contextual Analysis Discussion, you should make at least one original contextual analysis post and two comments to other posts for each module. Posts should be in full, grammatically correct sentences that create at least one solid response of at least 1200 words–make sure you include a word count. The word count does NOT include any headers or references section. All posts must be relevant to the assigned materials (although you may build upon previous knowledge from earlier weeks and include personal observations). Start by answering the prompt, and then build upon the prompt to consider your own perspectives and experiences. You MUST attach photos and web links to support your position. An important part of your grade for this assignment is to communicate with your classmates. Because this is intended to be your opportunity to discuss topics with your classmates, the professor/TA will generally refrain from commenting or actively participating in the discussions aside from reading and grading them. Each of the two comments should be at least 400 words (include a word count) on two different classmates’ posts each module to receive full credit. Posts: For this post, select one work of art (cinema, theatre, or dance) that has NOT been already analyzed or extensively discussed in the course readings or videos…part of the fun in learning about art is in DISCOVERING it! You are required to make one post to conduct both a formal and contextual analysis or your chosen work. Then, you will compare it to the work you selected in Module 1, the work you selected in Module 2, AND to any other work in Module 1 or Module 2 that was analyzed by another student in this class. This will give you FOUR works to discuss in this assignment:One work of art you select from the mediums we discussed in this module (cinema, theatre, or dance) in which you conduct a formal and contextual analysis with social angles.
You then compare the work you chose in this module (cinema, theatre, or dance) with the work you chose in module 1 (two-dimensional art or three-dimensional art). This comparison will be a brief compare/contrast/ways of seeing between the two works.
Next, compare the work you chose in this module (cinema, theatre, or dance) with the work you chose in module 2 (architecture, literature, or music). This comparison will be a brief compare/contrast/ways of seeing between the two works.
Last, you compare the work you chose in this module to any other work analyzed in module 1 or 2 by a peer. Again, this comparison will be a brief compare/contrast/ways of seeing between the two works.
This process expands your skills of doing a contextual analysis by comparing works to each other.In a narrative format, the post should contain the following elements:Define and Identify: Brief information about the artist and work. For example, birth/death dates, place of birth or work, where work is displayed, name of work, medium of work, context for creation of work.
Experience and Appreciation: For example, where you found the work (website, another book, museum), what made you select the work, what about this work speaks to you.
Observe and Analyze: Use and underline three terms that were introduced in the module to observe/analyze your chosen work. Add any other relevant information to improve your paper.
Critique and Compare: Compare your work to the selections from Modules 1 and 2 and a peer’s. Consider the impact of the work on a particular social angle and/or the evolution of the media. Consider the impact of experiencing the work on your general outlook on the medium or appreciation of art.
Apply Social Angles AND Context: Identify at least one social angle from the list below that can be observed or analyzed as part of the work. Address how the social angle is connected to the work. Plus, a thorough contextual analysis of the historical, cultural, and social implications should be discussed.race and ethnicity,
gender and sexuality,
class and highbrow/low,
colonialism, postcolonialism, place and regionalism,
nature (environment, ecology) and culture,
memory, history, generational identity,
food culture, and
body and mind
Students will be expected to define, identify, and apply at least three terms (underline them so I can quickly find them) from the module in the post. Make sure to underline the terms so that I can quickly identify them. College-level writing and mechanics are expected; however, the purpose of this assignment is to move from experiencing art to analyzing art to evaluating art. Make sure to include a references section at the end of every post, even if you only cite the lecture video. All in-text citations and references should be in MLA.Comments: For each of the two comments, select a classmate’s post, read the post, critique the post, indicate your reaction to the chosen work, discuss a comparison work from the module or any other outside source that is similar to the work identified in the post, and either add personal commentary or pose a question to stimulate conversation.Discussion Board Grading: (Note: while the total number of points you can earn is the same in all contextual analysis discussion assignments for this class, the percentage weight of each assignment towards your final grade increases.)Original Posts—30 points possible per module: Student has actively connected with the materials and has made a thoughtful and engaging post that considers multiple perspectives in relation to the readings and videos. Correct grammar, spelling, and sentence structure are utilized, as well as direct references to the course materials and an image of the selected work. It is crucial that you cite or reference some material from the class at least once during each original post to earn full credit. Minimum of 1200 words per original post. Indicate your word count at the end of your post (example: “Word Count: 553”).Comments—20 points possible per module (10 points per comment): Student stimulates the conversation and has made a thoughtful comment that is directly related to the original post. Correct grammar, spelling, and sentence structure are utilized, as well as direct references to the course materials. Minimum of 400 words per comment. Indicate your word count at the end of your post (example: “Word Count: 283”).
