Short analytic research paper
 
Paper due Sunday, Nov. 22nd
Choose a specific single artwork we have looked at in class, or an artwork we havent by an artist we have studied. (I CHOOSE ANDY WARHOL)
Find 3-4 online sources with further information about the work (painting, sculpture, performance, etc). 
In 2-3 pages describe:
¢ the visual qualities of the work
¢ the cultural and aesthetic context in which it was made
¢ why it was made (the artists interests)
¢ any other information you find compelling and/or noteworthy
In the first paragraph, you must include the artists name, the title of the work, its date and medium, and a general overview of the work (visual description, size) to orient the reader. The rest of the paper can happen in any order.
