Questions
Once you’ve selected the 10 artists you would like to focus on, you’ll
need to research answers to the following seven questions or question
groups:
1. What’s the year of the artist’s birth (and, where applicable, death)?
2. Where was the artist born? Where did he or she create the majority
of his or her work (if at a different location than this place of birth)?
3. What medium did the artist use? Did he or she use more than one
main medium?
4. Which art movement did the artist contribute to? If he or she
contributed to more than one movement, where did this artist make
the greatest impact?
5. What are some of the artist’s most famous works of art? Choose
one of these works. In what ways is the piece characteristic of the
movement specified above? (Include an image of the chosen
piece.)
6. What challenges, if any, did the artist face that may have affected
his or her work? What was happening in the world at that time that
influenced the artist’s work?
7. What’s innovative about the artist’s work for that time period?
You’ll then write an APA-formatted essay that contains a title page, a
brief introduction and conclusion, in-text citations supporting your
research, and a reference list. Answer each question using complete
sentences. The essay should be a minimum of 1,200 words. However,
most students finish the project in about 2,000 words.
Answer the questions in essay format; do not answer them in list format.
You’ll need to find at least one source for each artist from the internet, a
library, or elsewhere. Be sure to use reputable sources when searching
for information on your selected artists.
