The objective of this paper is to evaluate the uniqueness of the art and the contribution the artist made in the history of art. Follow this format:
1. Discuss her training and major influences in the development of her art.
2. Contextualize her art by discussing how her art is related to the art of her time and stressing the similarities between her work and that of her contemporaries.
3. Explain the uniqueness of her art–this time, focusing on the difference between her work to the others of her time and any particular traits that solely identify her work. While pointing out the general characteristics pertaining to the majority of her work, use specific pieces to discuss her art in detail.
4. Conclude by assessing the significance of her art in the history of art.
This is not a biographical essay on an artist, so do not dwell on the artist’s personal life, but focus on her art. You should only address the items spelled out above. Choose from the list:
Rosa Bonheur, Margaret Bourke-White, Mary Cassatt, Judy Chicago, Camille Claudel, Artemisia Gentileschi, Käthe Kollwitz, Dorothea Lange, Judith Leyster, Edmonia Lewis, Maya Lin, Berthe Morisot, Georgia O’Keeffe, Faith Ringgold, Betye Saar and Elisabeth Vigée-Lebrun.
First, look them up and see whose art works you like the best. Then choose one artist and do a search on CSU library website (library.csu.edu) by inserting the artist’s full name. Utilize the interlibrary loan (I-Share) and order books from ILCSO libraries (directly through the web. Consult the video recording titled “Library Search” in Moodle on how to search for scholarly books. Monographs, which are books just on that one artist, are preferred, since they are comprehensive —you should read at least 2 monographs on the artist. You may supplement with books with a full chapter on the artist and some articles as well . For articles, change the search mode to “Articles,” and read the details for each article to make sure they are substantive—not 1-2 pages, which are short reviews or just reference entries. Compile a list of about 5-8 books . Write in proper bibliography format and submit the list by 9/16. Once the instructor approves your list, you can borrow the books and start reading the books and articles. If the list of bibliography is insufficient, you will be asked to do another search and resubmit a new list.
When you write information based on the books, explain in your own words or use quotation marks if you directly copy from the book, so you don’t plagiarize by mistake. Once you read and made notes, write an overall plan for the paper that states the main thesis, describes the content of four subject divisions, list the art works that will be discussed in detail and explain the significance of the art.
When making a statement based on a reference, you must cite the source in your paper . DO NOT PLAGIARIZE or even NEAR-PLAGIARIZE —this is illegal and this will lead to a F grade. You will submit your paper via turnitin program on Moodle, which will detect plagiarism.
