instruction:
The Anatomy of a Look assignment gives you the chance to respond more directly to a work of your choosing. Again, you will choose an object from a list I will provide. Then, paying special attention to material, process, and your approaches (what worked, what didnt) you will re-create the object. You are welcome to get creative here enlist willing friends and family, use what objects you have at your disposal, even yourself, to recreate the work. The goal here is not perfection. Instead, I want to give you the chance to enact a work to engage with it physically, and to better grasp some of the challenges faced by artists in making stylistic choices. This assignment will also help you to better recognize moments of realism, abstraction, and stylization. The physical characteristics of materials will also be a central focus for this assignment. A short description of your process, materials, attempts, approaches, and successes or challenges will accompany your image. Most important of all in this short text will be your analysis of what you learned about the art object from the experiment and how you learned it. Some examples will be provided to give you a good sense of what the expectations of this assignment will be.
