AHIS11 Santa Monica The last Berth to be Broken Up & Paradise Art and Context Analysis

WRITING ASSIGNMENT

We have been examining art through a thematic approach across cultures and time periods. Pick 3 different and distinct examples of art from the course to demonstrate that art is a product of its context and show how each culture/time period utilized specific conventions of representation and a method of delivering them. Then, think of a visual expression in contemporary society of the last 5 years and relate it to each of your examples. How might context affect how future generations look at this record of our visual culture?

(I will send you pictures of three of the art pieces to relate to)
