Paper Requirements–Not Suggestions
Go to a museum and look at one work of art for thirty minutes taking careful notes.
Typed, 11-12 point font, double spaced, 900-1200 words (not characters).
Use the Chicago Manual of Style for footnotes or endnotes and bibliography. Citations do not simply fall at the bottom or end of the essay, but also includes a small number in the body of the text at the appropriate places to reference non-common knowledge facts. At the bottom of the page (footnotes) or at the end of the essay (endnotes) you must accurately cite all sources, including lectures, online resources, museum labels. “Works Cited” is not appropriate, and you do not cite the art work as a scholarly source. Please see: http://bcs.bedfordstmartins.com/resdoc5e/RES5e_ch10_s1-0007.html.
The first page of the paper (The Cover Page) please include the following information: Artist, Title, Date, Medium, your first and last name, and five digit ticket number, name of the museum you visited and the date you visited.
Use a minimum of three SCHOLARLY resources, other than your text books. Two of the sources must be a library data base electronically sourced document. You may also use your text book(s), but two sources from elsewhere. You are evaluated on the quality of your sources.
Paper should be written in the 3rd person, NOT informal journal entry writing such as: “On a bright sunny day I went to the Laguna Museum of Art and discovered the beautiful work of…” Also, instead of saying, “I see that there is a light in the middle of the painting, which makes me think the figure is important.” Instead, you should consider writing, “The artist emphasizes the figure in the middle of the painting by portraying this area of the composition with a lighter palette suggesting a light source on the left of the composition.” Also, do not write as if writing a travel brochure. Ie: The Bowers Museum
Museum Paper-Assignment continued….
of Art has many treasures for the general public and anyone can find something of interest. Please focus on writing a college-level paper, focusing on work of art.
The title of the work (object you are writing about) should be italicized such as, “Thomas Cole’s painting, The Oxbow is reminiscent of….
The Paper
Write complete and coherent sentences. Write in the 3rd person. Write from notes/outlines and your own personal honest, observations.
Avoid vague flowery effusive language. Example: “The artist’s inherent genius is evident in this masterpiece.”
Avoid disorganized and journal entry style writing.
Some scholarly resources are necessary, but this is not a research paper. Research should support your argument/observations about the work. Do not pad the essay with long unnecessary facts that do not pertain to your own observations about the work.
Common mistakes: An artist is not an “author” and a painting is not a photograph. Please know the medium of the work of art and reference it correctly in the essay
The Paper Continued…
The following questions are ways for you to think about the work, but should not be taken literally as question/answers in the paper. What do you see? Colors, textures, composition? What is the subject matter/content of the work? How does the artist portray
what you are seeing? Linear qualities? Painterly qualities? What captured your attention/interest with this work? What do you think about the work? Does it appeal to you for a particular reason? What did you learn about the artist’s intentions/if any? Do you agree? How the work of art succeeds or fails in terms of what you think the artist’s intentions were?
