Select a work of art/architecture made between 1400 CE and the present that you believe is particularly significant but has not appeared in our class. Argue for its inclusion in the ART 102 course in a 1-2 page paper.
A standard feature of an art historical education, the art history survey class attempts to provide both depth and breadth in an introduction to the field of art history over a huge chronological span. This necessarily involves skipping many important works of art. In this assignment, you will think about the omissions involved in constructing an art history survey.
Choose an object that has not come up during class time, but you believe deserves a place in the art history survey. Consider: Where does your chosen object fit within the history of art as we have studied it in this class? Does it represent a geographical area or a culture we did not study explicitly? Is it a type of object, or made of a material, that we have not studied in great depth? Is it exceptional in form and/or content for its period or style, or is it typical in some way?
This paper is argument-driven, and as such should include a clear thesis statement and body text, grounded in historical and formal evidence, that supports your thesis. You should think both about what our survey class has covered and what we have had to leave out.
The goal of this assignment is to think critically about art history and how it is represented in the classroom. Refer to works we have studied in class, and compare them to the object you have chosen. Be specific and purposeful in your argument!
