final week instructionsDecember 1-8 Make appointment to meet. Email images of work to date. Email preliminary Artist Statement for review. Expanded Artist statement must include: --One paragraph introduction to idea or concept. --Clear description of each piece. --Discussion of historic context. This will include artists and other research you are using to inform your work. Research should be integrated into the discussion and a way of informing the viewer about your ideas. --Concluding paragraph as to how your work creates the meaning you intend. --It should be at least 3-5 pages. A real artist statement should be less than one page. It's designed to give viewers of your work a bit more insight into your ideas. In our case, the Expanded Artist Statement serves as a traditional artist statement with additional information making it land somewhere between the statement and a thesis. It should be well written, well edited and concise. You are writing it for an audience (not me) so it should not sound like a project done for a class, but rather an intelligent, informed, professional document. December 14 Last Class Final Critique Have all work done in class to present at final crit. This includes the concept pieces and your personal work based on proposal presented. Have portfolio ready to present to class. Have finished Expanded Artist Statement for body of work. |
