Third Assignment 2012-2013

This assignment is due by Friday August 24th at Midnight emailed to me at christopher.clarke@redclay.k12.de.us

READING

In "Learning to Look at Paintings", read:

Chapter 4: Tone
Chapter 5: Colour
Chapter 6: Subject-matter

In "Gospel Figures in Art", read pages 167-375 (many pages are just pictures)
In "Gods and Heroes in Art", read pages 189-375 (many pages are just pictures)

WRITING

This assignment will be more practice in formal analysis of works.

Choose 4 works from your reading in "Gods" or "Gospels" and write an analysis of each based on the "Learning to Look at Paintings" chapter on TONE (Pages 88-117).

Choose 4 works from your reading in "Gods" or "Gospels" and write an analysis of each based on the "Learning to Look at Paintings" chapter on COLOUR (Pages 118-134).

Choose 4 works from your reading in "Gods" or "Gospels" and write an analysis of each based on the "Learning to Look at Paintings" chapter on SUBJECT MATTER (Pages 135-174).

The instructions for the writing component are the exact same as the first major assignment. Don't forget that I will be assessing you based on the Gods, Gospels, and Writing about Art Readings when we return to school, so make sure you get them done before then! After this assignment there is only an essay left to complete for summer work, hopefully that is somewhat encouraging. Make sure you ask questions if you need help with anything! Good luck!

Sincerely,
Mr. Clarke
