Project Paper

Pretend you are a museum curator and are preparing an exhibition of selected works. Your exhibition needs to meet the following criteria:
• Choose a time frame from the last 2 chapters of the book (Chapters 32 Modern Art in Europe and the Americas, 1900–1950, and Chapter 33 The International Scene since the 1950s).
• Choose one movement (for ex.: Abstract Expressionism, Pop, Minimalism, Feminist art, etc.) from those chapters to create your exhibition.
• Select 4 artists and their works from the textbook to include in your exhibit.
• Write a didactic label for each work with a 175- word minimum that explains the meaning, how it relates to the movement you chose, etc., of the work.
In addition to the labels for the exhibition (you don’t need to use any site/program for the exhibition) you also need to write a 2-3-page paper that addresses the following:
• Explain why you chose this movement.
• Explain the impact of that movement within the history of art (how/why did it encourage future artists, etc.
