Description

Step 1: Choose one work of art from one of the following museum’s websites: – The Menil Collection: https://www.menil.org/ (Links to an external site.) – The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston: https://www.mfah.org/ (Links to an external site.) – J. Paul Getty Museum: https://www.getty.edu/museum/ (Links to an external site.) – The National Gallery of Art: https://www.nga.gov/collection.html (Links to an external site.) Find a still shot of the work to save to your desktop. You must select artwork from one of the museums listed, only. In a Microsoft Word document include the image (1 MB each max). Make sure that your writing is free from typos and grammatical mistakes. Under the image answer the following questions: Step 2: What is the title of the work and who is the artist? (Titles of artworks are capitalized and always italicized or in quotation marks.) What do you see in the artwork? If you see un-namable shapes or objects (abstract objects), describe their colors, line quality, texture, shadows, variety, etc. Which Essential Element of Art or Principle of Design is most obvious to you in the work? (The LISTEN module is the content area for understanding the Elements and Principles.) What is the medium the artist used? (Painting, sculpture, installation, video, photography, ceramics etc.?) Based on your visual observation, along with any content (written or audio) that the museum provides with the art, what do you think is the meaning of the artwork? Which Element of Art or Principle of Design do you see that the artist uses to help convey that interpretation? Step 3: At the bottom of your document, write a very brief statement answering the following question: Did your understanding of the artwork change after your observation and analysis?
