Comparison of art works

 

 

1) Give information about each work. Answer at least three of the following questions
How does this work fit within the themes, issues, art movements, styles, or time periods discussed in class?
What are the social, political, philosophical, or historical contexts of the work?
What is the subject matter and how does it relate to the social, political or philosophical contexts of the work?
What were the artist’s intentions, aims, goals — what is artist trying to achieve?
Is this typical of the kinds of works produced by this artist? How or why not?
How might the formal elements (composition, tonal values, photographic techniques, type of camera used,
etc.) of the work relate to its meaning?
Include information from the lectures, textbook, and documentaries
Please note that you need to do more than simply describe what you see in the work.
2) Similarities
-What are the similarities between the two works?
-Discuss the subject matter, and artist’s intentions, and technical aspects or other elements that might contain
similarities
-How do the similarities relate the themes, issues, styles, time periods, and/or art movements discussed in
class? (Discuss at least 2 of these areas)
-Be sure to discuss not just the formal aspects but how these photographs relate to the contexts and time
periods in which they were produced
3) Differences
-What are the differences between the works?
-Discuss the subject matter and artist’s intentions, and technical aspects or other elements that might contain
differences.
-How do the differences relate the themes, issues, styles, time periods, and/or art movements discussed in
class? (Discuss at least 2 of these areas)
