A formal analysis is a detailed descriiption of the “formal” qualities of an artwork. This exercise requires a long and sustained observation and descriiption of the art piece’s individual formal elements, such as subject, composition, pose, proportions, lines, space, texture, light and shadow, size, color, mood. A formal analysis assumes that a work of art has a meaning intended by the artist, and that this meaning can be ascertained by studying the relationships between the elements of the work. To aid in writing a formal analysis, you should think as if you were describing the work of art to someone who has never seen it before, so as to have a complete mental picture of what the work looks like. Yet, the formal analysis is more than just a descriiption of the work. It should also include a thesis statement that reflects your conclusions about the work. The thesis statement may, in general, answer a question like these: What do I think is the meaning of this work? What is the message that this work or artist sends to the viewer? What is this work all about? The thesis statement is an important element. It sets the tone for the entire paper, and sets it apart from being a merely descriiptive paper.
It is important to remember that your interest here is strictly formal; NO RESEARCH IS TO BE USED IN THIS PAPER. In other words, you are strictly relying on your ability to visually ‘read’ a work of art and make interpretations about it based on your analysis of it. Please use descriiptive language and adjectives to describe your work. Begin with a general descriiption of the work, and then move on to the more specific elements.

For your first project you will be creating a PowerPoint presentation that can be understood through reading text and viewing slides as visuals.
The topic of your presentation will be an International Repatriation request that you find in the
news, obviously not the Benin Bronzes or the Parthenon Marbles (but it could be other items
originating from Nigeria or Greece). Ideally, this will be a request that is in the process or just
recently happened. Please avoid any Nazi Era items as we will thoroughly cover this topic
later. We will also be covering NAGPRA and Native American repatriations as a unit so please
make sure that your topic is not from Native Americans in the USA requesting back items from
an American Museum.
Your project will be to investigate the origin of the objects (site or a cultural group that the
object/objects were taken from). You will need to find images of the original site and images of
what is being requested (or at least good descriptions of the objects). You will need to
investigate the terms of how the objects were taken/acquired, when they were taken/acquired,
and who was responsible for the taking/acquisition. Where are the objects now (find the
repository) and get any images you can. Who is requesting the objects back and where would
they go? (Again, get any images you can.) Based on your investigation, should the request be
honored and the repatriation carried through?
You will put this all into a short presentation (written out it should be approximately 350
(minimum) to 500 words (max of 750) with a minimum of 6 slides (the most you should need
would be 12 slides). Remember to record where you are getting your images from and cite
your sources at the end. Be as clear, concise, and informative as you can.

Instructions: 1. Analyze the artwork discuss how the artist addresses concepts of globalization and/or functions as an agent of change. Consider the subject and content of the work as well as matters of style. The artwork may be from any time period or geographical location. [Any artwork that depicts influence of cultural interaction/transformation/border-crossing will serve as an appropriate example]. Write a double spaced two-page analysis. Please cite any sources using CHICAGO MANUAL OF STYLE!
2. Chicago Notes and Bibliography at the end
3. Artwork i have chosen is: Yinka Shonibare CBE : “Flower Power”
Flower Power unravels the complex history of the fabric, from its original conception based on Indonesian design, to its introduction to the African colonies in the 19th century, and its re-appropriation as a symbol of Black power and African independence in the 1960s.
Central to the exhibition is Woman Shooting Cherry Blossom (2019), a new work by Shonibare tracing the spread of the Edwardian dress in Dutch-wax fabric around the globe, reflecting the 19th century’s globalised economy as well as the predominance of colonialism in this era. The cherry blossom shooting out of the rifle represents the postcolonial hybridisation of female identities emerging from the historical confines of Meiji Japan.

Please read this essay. There are two parts, the first is a forward by Vincent Scully (the famous 1970s historian from Yale) and the second is the essay by Frank Lloyd Wright himself. He spends a bit of the essay restating points made by Sullivan in the article you previously read. What is new here is the idea that what the “artistic architect” is interpreting is not just the site nor the program, but the client themselves. Please write a one page response to the essay.
