Write an essay in which you evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the theory�

Instructions for Essay 2

1) Choose an artwork from Art 313 lecture slides made between 2000 and today OR visit one of the following museums, and choose a work of art or an exhibition of art that was produced between 2000 and today. The work or exhibition you choose must be different from the one you wrote about for the first essay.
—I choose Diana Thater, which I attended at LACMA in Los Angeles CA

These museums regularly feature contemporary art exhibitions of international stature: the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA.org), the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA.org, especially its onsite contemporary-art building BCAM), the UCLA Hammer Museum (Hammer.ucla.edu), the Getty Center (Getty.edu), REDCAT (Redcat.org), Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions (welcometolace.org), LAX ART (LAXART.org), the Santa Monica Museum of Art (SMMOA.org), the Museum of Latin American Art (molaa.org), and The Broad Museum (thebroad.org).

2) Choose one of the following theories of art: formalist or postmodernist. Material not yet discussed in class is off limits and will not receive credit.

3) Write an essay in which you evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the theory�as defined by Terry Barrett in Why Is That Art?�for understanding or experiencing that particular work or exhibition. How does the theory help and how might it hinder understanding of that work or exhibition? Make sure you have a clear thesis and support your argument with sound evidence from the relevant chapter in Barrett as well as from the work you�ve chosen.

In order to successfully do the above, you will have to demonstrate how a theorist of the type you choose (not an individual theorist Barrett discusses, but rather an imaginary representative of the ideas common to all theorists of the type you choose) would go about interpreting the work. Walk the reader through a sample interpretive process as if you were a theorist of that type. Then, evaluate that sample interpretation. Does it address what you think is important to notice about the work? Does it ignore what you think are important considerations?

Note: If you choose postmodernist theory, address what all of the theories that make up postmodernist theory have in common (as presented in the lecture slide for discussion of chapter 5), but when pointing out examples of those ideas in the book, be sure to identify which of the particular theories you are drawing your examples of theoretical thought from (poststructuralist, feminist, postcolonialist, etc.)

Note: Do not use quotations in place of your own words. Quotations may be used only as evidence of a point you are making. Using quotations requires you to explain them. They do not substitute for your own words. Always differentiate your voice from another author�s. You will get credit only for your own words.

4) When handing in any essay for grading, fill out the Grading Rubric (posted on Blackboard) with your name and the course information and staple it on top of your essay so that it is the first page of your essay. Consult this Grading Rubric if you want to understand what constitutes a good essay and how your essay will be graded. Note that the weight your professor gives to each criterion in the rubric may vary. This is due to the fact that a student’s performance in any one area may be especially good or bad that it disproportionately affects the work’s overall quality.

5) If you visit a museum, please attach your ticket stub or receipt with your name on it to the back of your essay as proof of your visit. If you did not visit a museum for this essay, please hand in your first essay as proof that you visited a museum for that assignment.

Text formatting: Double spaced, 12-point font, 1-inch margins.

Approximate length: There is no strict length requirement. A few pages should do the trick, but this is just a guideline.

A hypothesis is a predictive statement that is testable and falsifiable.

Come up with a hypothesis based on previous observations or information. A hypothesis is a predictive statement that is testable and falsifiable. It is not a question. This task is easier if it pertains to a topic of interest to you that you want to know how or why. You then need to decide how to test your hypothesis. The accumulation of data can take many forms including observations and measurements, survey documents, record reviews, etc. If you are testing a particular variable, be careful to identify other possible variables and control for them. You will also need a control group if you are comparing populations or testing the effect of something on a population, whether it is mineral, plant or animal. After you have accumulated sufficient data, having reached a preset time frame, or number count, you will analyze that data to determine what conclusion you can draw from the data collected. You must use graphs and/or charts to graphically show data results as well as a narrative. The graphical displays will assist you in drawing your conclusion. Please be sure to add patterns to your graphs so that, if you must print on a black and white printer, I can still see the differences between the various parts of the graph. After the analysis of the data, you will be able to determine whether you have a conclusion that supports or refutes your hypothesis. This will be the final statement of the paper. An outline of your paper, which includes your hypothesis and methodology must be submitted no later than October 9th. This should be no longer than one page, typed, with a sample of your proposed survey document (if applicable) attached. The final research paper is due on the next to the last class of the semester. The format of the paper will be: Statement of your hypothesis and a very brief discussion of how you decided that there was merit to this particular subject as an area for investigation and what led you to choose to examine this particular topic. Discussion of the subject to be studied and the method employed to conduct the research. If you are using survey documents, a sample must be included. The sources of information must also be well documented. Research tools must also be clearly specified, e.g. don’t just say a ruler was used, specify whether it was a metric or linear ruler. Remember the experiment must be reproducible and your work must be original. Talk about problems that arose either in the accumulation of the data or in unexpected results that caused you to change your methodology. (This change will have occurred during the experiment, not before you settled on the topic of your experiment.) Data Analysis Analyze the data collected. If you have collected information on age and sex of respondents, make sure that you compare answers according to age and sex as well as any other parameters used in the survey. (More on survey experiments in class.) If you ask ten questions, each question should be purposeful and should give you data useful in supporting or refuting your hypothesis. Discuss the results of the research fully including graphs, pictures, and data tables as appropriate. Based on the data, draw a conclusion about the data. You may also have noticed a strong correlation in the data to something you may not have been testing. This serendipitous finding should be noted, though it is not necessary to go into further discussion in the paper. Conclusion Finally, you will state whether you believe the data analysis and the conclusion support or refute your hypothesis As noted in class, the research paper will be about ten pages long, not including attachments. It should be double spaced, with no larger than 1″ margins. A complete bibliography and footnotes are required and it must be grammar and spell checked! No names of surveyed persons are to appear on the surveys. If you intend to test humans, you must discuss your experiment with me beforehand. You will have the best chance of achieving the maximum number of points for your work if you remember the following: You must actually do an experiment or conduct a survey of no fewer than 100 respondents This is not a media, internet, or library search Do not research a topic and then report on that research in place of doing an experiment Experiments must be college level, not grade or high school level If you are having problems deciding on a topic or how to approach the experiment, come and talk to me or send me an e-mail as early as possible so that you don’t run out of time to complete the experiment and type up your results Chapter 1 in your text book talks about the scientific method. You should review the discussion before you write your outline for the paper.
