ART148
For your paper you will go to a museum or art gallery, choose a piece of art whether it be a painting, sculpture or otherwise (the piece need not be ceramic) and spend an hour with it. Then write a 3 page, double spaced paper about your opinions of the work, as well as your experience of spending that much time with a single piece of art. A half a page can be a description of the piece, including: title, artist, dimensions, media, and date, as well as a brief description of where you viewed it. If you can find an image of the piece, include it with your paper, otherwise include a small sketch. Also include a ticket stub, gallery announcement or a selfie with your paper.
Things to think about:
- why you liked it;
- what drew you into to the piece initially;
- did your opinion of the piece change as you spent time with it;
- did your understanding of what the piece is about change as you spent time with it.
This is not an art history paper, its a paper about your observations and perceptions.
