artist and/or artwork located in your community that can be found in a museum, gallery, or other public space.

Details: This is your opportunity to interpret a work of visual art that you have encountered in
person that holds some kind of significance for you. It can be a public sculpture or monument, a
mural, a painting you’ve seen in a museum or gallery, a photograph, a poster hanging in your
room, a work of art that you yourself have created! Just make sure that you choose something we
have not covered in class – I want to learn something new from you! Your response paper can be
organized as you see fit, but I expect you to guide me through some kind of visual analysis of the
work, along with an interpretation of its meaning, significance, or purpose. In your response, you
can draw on biographical details of the artist, the object’s historical context, or any other method
of interpretation covered in class.
