2 part reading response week 11

Part 1: Please go through this week’s content (Chapter Readings, Supplementary Readings, Videos, etc.) and write your authentic response to them, minimum 2 pages. A thorough response should include the following content:

• A short summary of what you read. No need to be too extensive, but consider both what the piece was about, what examples the author used, and what angle they approached their topic from. What methodology did they use? What sources did they pull from? Elaborate on what you thought was most important and what the overall concepts were this week.
• What was/is your initial response to the chapters? Did you agree with the author’s argument? Did you understand what they meant immediately or did you have to read some things back a few times? If you agree with their assessment, why? If you didn’t, why?
• What did you find interesting or learn while reading? Did they mention anything you have personal experience in or with? What resonated with you? What (if anything) was entirely new to you and how has it changed how you have thought about art before now?
• What further questions has the reading sparked? Not just clarifying questions about the content of the reading, but what has it made you think about? Or consider from a different angle? If you were to ask questions that would expand upon their research, what would they be?

• PART 2: 
• Please go through this week’s content (Chapter Readings, Supplementary Readings, Videos, etc.) and choose one artwork that stands out to you. Write a brief 1-2 page visual analysis of the piece. A good analysis will include the following information, organized appropriately:
  • Identification of the artwork. What is the piece called? Who made it and with what medium/materials? When/where was it made and where is it now? 
  • A visual description of the artwork. What does it look like? Describe the experience of looking at the work – where is the eye first drawn, and where how does it move from there? In addition to the content of the piece (what is being depicted), consider also what one notices about the characteristics of the piece itself – is there texture in the paint? Identify the elements/principles of design present in the work. 
  • An argument for the mood of the piece. Using the elements/principles you have identified, make an argument for what the piece achieves. What kind of mood has it created? What reaction does it elicit? Acknowledge the functional purpose of the work (if any) and elaborate on your interpretation of the piece. Is it calming and soothing to look at? Does it feel chaotic and dangerous? Does it stir up anger, or is there a sadness resonating in it? While art is subjective, your argument should be supported by concrete observations about the present elements/principles of art and design. (Ex. The painting uses a monochromatic color palette and jagged, twisting lines to create a feeling of anxiety.)
