-Body of the Paper: -Formal analysis
-Contextual Analysis
-Bibliography or Works Cited Page
Part 1: FORMAL ANALYSIS (about 3 pages)
-Identify the title of a single work, the artist and the collection/gallery/museum housing the work. This is the only information that will come from anywhere but you. NO RESEARCH SHOULD BE COMPLETED FOR THE FORMAL ANALYSIS.
-Complete formal analysis: These are suggested concepts, but you may have other things to say or some of these terms may not be applicable to your work. Also, you may see fit to organize the information differently for the flow of your paper.
-Content: What is it about? Representational, non-Representational, abstract, naturalistic, figurative, still-life, landscape, historical, contemporary, narrative, symbolic, process-oriented
-Composition: how is it composed? Organization of space, illusion, foreground, middle ground, background, focal point/s, flat space, atmospheric perspective, linear perspective, scale reductions, overlap, static or dynamic, symmetry, asymmetry, spiral, the direction of visual interest, interaction with the viewer, size of the work
-Materials: paper, canvas, glass, etc., rough, smooth, flat, sculptural, condition of work such as peeling/chipping/cracking, color choices
Start general and work towards specific. Incorporate terminology from art vocabulary. The reader should understand what you are looking at and describing without looking at a picture. Stick to descriptive words and avoid opinion. This is not a critique.
Part 2: CONTEXTUAL ANALYSIS (about 3 pages)
-Research: For this portion of the paper, find at least three scholarly sources in addition to your text book. (No non-scholarly internet sources, though you may use articles printed in scholarly journals accessed online through databases like JSTOR or google scholar).
-Complete Contextual Analysis: Write about the same work from the formal analysis portion, only now you will place the piece that you viewed into a context. If it is contemporary, explain how it relates to the present day art culture based on outside, but scholarly research. Magazines, newspapers, gallery websites, and artist websites can be useful sources. This portion should be distinctly separate from the formal analysis of the report.
