art assignment critical thinking writing assignment 4 class amp visual culture

Assignment: So far, this course has covered Class & Visual Culture. Both of these chapters have distinct artistic ideas, styles, social & historical developments that involve visual art. I have provided 3 images for you. With each image, explain 1 development, idea, or event that you feel had the greatest impact on the art production of that image. Please make sure to also include the importance of each image (subject & meaning) & the medium.

Minimum length: 2 – 3 page essay – double spaced. Prior to posting, change your format to single space with double spacing between paragraphs. Then, copy & paste your essay your post into Canvas. This will make it easier for me to read – less scrolling.

Sources: the textbook & the Instructor PDF files. This means that if you quote a passage from the textbook, it MUST be cited. This goes for the instructor PDF files.

How to Avoid Plagiarism…
 Remember, your post is in your own words. DO NOT copy the information, word for word, from the textbook or the Instructor PDF files. If you do this, you will receive a ZERO for this Assignment. In addition, if you look up information on a website, you must also rewrite it in your own words. I will only accept websites that are scholarly written – this does not include Wikipedia, Dictionaries, Encyclopedias, blogs or children’s books. Do not Google your answer.
