Art Week 2
Choose three to four of the following artists for an exhibition centered on the organizing theme, Trends in Early Twentieth Century American Art:
- Alfred Stieglitz
- Arthur Dove
- Georgia O’Keeffe
- Marcel Duchamp
- Marsden Hartley
- Romaine Brooks
- Ansel Adams
- Imogen Cunningham
- Diego Rivera
- Edward Weston
- Tina Modotti
Select at least six to eight artworks total for your exhibition (Basically two per artist selected).
Write a 175- to 250-word label (which will be placed alongside the artwork in the gallery) for each of your selected artworks. This should include basic information about the artist, the style of the paiinting, the reasoning behind selection of the subject (if applicable) and how he or she uses specific techniques to realize his or her vision/mood for the work. REMEMBER: you are acting as an ‘expert’ curator of a museum, not a UOP student writing a paper, so avoid using personal references such as ‘I’, ‘we’, ‘you’, etc. We don’t want your opinion.
You may submit your overview as a Microsoft® Word document with images, or use a presentation tool, such as PowerPoint®.
