Post 3 due 4/23 - 5%

Can you name 5 women artists?

Concentrating on modern and contemporary artists and possibly inspired by current events and on your journal writing during this pandemic, choose 5 women artists that are connected by a common theme. Themes we have discussed throughout the course include but are not limited to: gender inequality, race, class, religion, power, body, spirituality, empowerment, war, injustice. You can choose from this short list or another theme you find compelling. You can also organize your post by genre, 'isms, political or societal messages, aesthetics, techniques or personal narratives. Choose a clear theme and thesis for your post. How do the 5 artists or artworks fit into the theme? How are the artworks connected? Be sure to include at least one contemporary artist still working today. Illustrate your post with various images (and/or videos) and to cite your research from Chadwick and any additional sources.

~700 words, citations and 'works cited' and 5+ images with captions. See checklist from previous posts for additional guidance.

Group presentations (groups 4,5,6,7):

will be due on the blog (and presented in the class session) on a revised schedule. I will discuss this further in the class session. Work together offline to create a "performance" that can be shared on the blog and in the class online session. You can record a zoom session, use Google slides with audio - or present in class live, make a video, etc.

Keep a journal (daily or almost daily) you DO NOT need to share any of this writing. I want you to keep this for your selves. You can share any part you would like on the blog or on twitter at anytime but this is not required.

One final writing assignment:

The final short essay will ask you to connect your journal writing to some of the artists and artwork we have learned throughout the semester. The writing assignment will be due 4/23. The assignment will be posted on the sidebar by 4/8.

Final Exam:

Details to be determined - the exam will be given in the online class session. A study guide will still be provided several weeks before the exam.
