prepare a research paper focused on one work of design. Papers must employ the critical study of design while focusing on one work of design in any medium that was designed before 1980 (other works might be introduced in comparison, but the detailed focus should remain on one work). Papers must include a personal thesis statement, images of the works discussed, at least 10 scholarly sources (5 sources should be primary sources), and proper citations and footnotes. Students will research and discuss aspects of style, material, production, marketing, etc. in order to place their objects within a cultural context.
Your papers should consult at least 10 scholarly sources. Sources may be academic books or journal articles. Do not use Wikipedia or other non scholarly internet sources.
The work should also be considered in a more contemporary light: why is this 40+ year old object relevant to someone living in 2023? Does history reflect some aspect of the present? Does the present make us re-think the past?

“Exploring Social Responsibility through Art: A Creative and Collaborative Project”
This is an assignment for Art college course taken by a High School Senior. I’ve attached the 2 example essays/papers that were provided by the professor. Below are all the instructions from the professor.
***Please ensure you are clear as to the project requirement. Submit as a Word document or PDF with the artwork included.***
Assignment: Create an Artwork and Write a Paper: Create a work of art in the media of your choice focusing on a social responsibility theme such as the environment, human rights, equality issues, social justice, the COVID-19 response, etc. You need not consider yourself an artist to successfully complete this project, and this assignment should not intimidate you, even if you don’t usually create art. The purpose of this assignment is that you experience the creative process. It is not important whether your work is a masterpiece—only that you complete it and apply what you have learned in your assignments. You will engage in the creative process and demonstrate your awareness of the physical and intellectual demands of the arts.
Deliverables: These are the items that you will need to submit. Each person in the group will submit the following items. Please combine these two items into one single PDF document.
• Photograph or video of your artwork
• 2-page paper with critique
Activity Details:
Perform the following steps:
Step 1: Identify a Socially Responsible topic that you would like to investigate.
As a group, you will need to gather facts and some research to support your topic. You may include your own opinions on the matter, but I do want to see evidence of research to support your opinions.
Step 2: Decide on a creative project.
You can take a photograph or create a painting, a drawing, a building design, a graphic design, or a sculpture. It must be a type of visual art that the art world would consider as visual fine or graphic arts. This artwork should demonstrate your position on the socially responsible topic in your paper.
Step 3: Gather the supplies.
Make a list of and then collect the art supplies and equipment that you’ll need to create your project. If you choose to use the photography medium for your artwork you must also clearly and convincingly explain and defend why your photography is fine art and not just a snap shot (not art).
Step 4: Create!
Each person should create their own artwork. Set aside some time to create your project. Try to employ the unifying principles of design, including repetition, variety, rhythm, balance, emphasis, and economy, to create an original work.
Step 5: Share
You should ask your group to critique your work and to give you feedback as to the level of completion, artistic expression and effectiveness of your message (concept).
Step 6: Prepare your submission with critique
Submit a .pdf of your completed work describing your socially responsible topic with supporting research, a description of your creative process and what was discussed in the collaborative critique of your work, and an image of your artwork on the third page of your .pdf (two pages to write the paper, and the final page has an image of the artwork). You must also mention who you worked with and any important details about the collaborative experience (positive or negative). Please use standard margins, 12 pt font, and no more than double spacing for the format of your submission. If you are including a video of your artwork, please do so as a link via You-Tube in your PDF document. You will research and discuss the assignment with your group. Each person in the group is responsible for writing their own 2-page paper on the topic selected. -

“Exploring Representations of Death and the Afterlife: A Comparative Analysis of Sculptures from Different Cultures at the Metropolitan Museum of Art”
Your blind uncle is back in town. You did such a wonderful job describing a work of art that he’s returned for more. But this time he’s interested in learning something else—namely, about representations of death and the afterlife. You see, he’s beginning to think about his mortality and is seeking insight on how past cultures have conceived of and represented this idea. Compare two sculptures from the Metropolitan Museum of Art from distinct cultures (i.e., Egyptian, Greek/Roman, Early Christian, Byzantine, etc.), offering a descriptive and thematic analysis of representations of the culture’s “take” on death. Choose two works from the list below – they must be from different cultures. Concisely and clearly describe the formal properties of the sculptures— i.e., what is represented, what medium is used, how the forms are modeled, etc. Note of any key similarities and differences. What function did the works serve? For what (likely) settings were they originally intended? For what (likely) patron? Based on their stylistic, and thematic characteristics, how do they reflect the attitudes toward death of their respective cultures?
Conclusion: Suggest which of the two works would offer your uncle more insight and/or comfort as a funerary monument? Why? If there was one (minor) adjustment or change you would make to the work to better accommodate your uncle’s ideals, what would it be?

“The Mark of Discrimination: My Experience with Visible Differences”
Around my fourth birthday, I had an accident where I was accidentally hurt on my little face. A medium but visible line tracing along my cheekbone. Throughout my school years, I have been excluded from different institutions just because of this remarkable appearance. so, it is well known that people from institutions often discriminate against individuals with visible differences.
