COMPARE AND CONTRAST THE WORK OF 3 ARTWORKS, BY AT LEAST 2 ARTISTS, FROM DIFFERENT CULTURAL CONTEXTS.
A Comparative Study in art is not an extended essay, it does not have to even be an essay. It is an investigation that strikes a balance between written and visual content. There is no prescribed format for this task, you just need to complete 10-15 slides that look a the work of 3 artworks from 2 different cultural contexts. This could be by 2 artists, or by 3artists. You need to acknowledge your sources and be aware that your work will be analyzed and addressed on screen.
You can compare any 3pieces of work, but I would suggest to make connections between form and meaning, think about how the artists have looked at somethingwhich is similar (or the same) in different ways and questions why.
Your teacher can discuss the choice of work, but it is important that you decide what work to look at. You can get oral or written feedback on your initial draft, but the next version you submit must be the final version.
Last words of advise..Make sure that you use this time to your benefit, what is it that you want to find out, discover, uncover.. connect to your own art making practice in order to make it a more useful process for yourself. If it is something that is entirely separate from your process and production then this is a lot of time and energy that you may not value in the long run.
