Topic – Any artist and painting
Provide a slide presentation that will answer the following:
1. Who is your artist and/or artifact? What is the date of the artifact?
2. Briefly describe this artist’s context and how this influences the creation of the artwork. (This should include the birth and death dates of the artist.)
3. Briefly discuss the elements of the artifact and the purpose of this work. Give one interesting fact about the artwork.
4. Briefly explain why this artist’s work is essential or important. Is your topic a giant of the arts? Is this artifact a masterpiece?
5. List your sources.
Each presentation should contain five to seven slides. Each presentation’s audio portion should be between five to ten minutes in length. Use at least three sources beginning with our text. There will be plenty of information on your artist; your job will be to present the essential information on this author.
