Poster: (minimum 13 x 19 inches/A3) In this project, you will visualize a theory or social phenomenon of your choice. More specifically, you need to advertise or promote an event or an object related to the theory or social phenomenon using the form of a poster. It can be a fictitious or actual play of your choice, a commercial poster for a scientific museum show, a conceptual image for an event, or a philanthropic poster for the greater good.
The Research Essay: In their essay, students should select one or two artworks that they have seen during any of their visits this semester to galleries, museums, class lectures or online/offline exhibitions.
Students describe the experience of viewing one or two artworks, and compare and contrast each artist’s/designer’s approach. Students should discuss the effect and efficacy of these pieces and make suggestions for improvements where they see fit. Write about the thoughts and reactions to those artworks. The artworks students select should be related to the projects in some way — because of similarities, because of differences.
The essay of the artworks should be interconnected and interrelated. The content of what to write may vary depending on students’ interests. One might write about personal reactions to the artworks. One might write about how the artworks relate to some contemporary ideas — or to some historical movements, or to some philosophical issue, or some art-theory issues.
Students could include comments about technical issues if they somehow relate to the impact
of the artworks.
