The World of Art
Paper #4, also known as the Gallery paper, originally called for you to visit a gallery or museum in person, to find a work of art to write about. Thhe goal was to get you out into the world of art. Seeing art in person is very different from seeing a picture of it in a book or website. It’s an experince I think everyone should have, but only if they can do it safely and following all health guidelines. You are NOT required to visit or museum or gallery, under the current situation. Here are the updated instructions for the paper: Write a 600 word paper. You must complete the gallery paper before you continue to Module 3. Visit a gallery or museum website and write about an artwork you find there. It must be an artwork currently shown on their site, preferably from a featured show they may be holding. Include the name and some background of the museum or gallery. You should spend most of your paper discussing the elements and principles of design as it pertains to the artwork in question. Try to cover as many of them as you can. They are discussed in chapters 3 – 7 in our textbook. Please see “How do I write the gallery paper” at the top of the page for this assignment in the Blackboard module. You must submit a photo of the artwork you have chosen.
