1. After you read about the Bauhaus style. We began the course with the Egyptian pyramids which you can argue really don’t connect to anything in the future – the Greek parthenon, the Roman pantheon and then an enormous leap to the medieval cathedrals . . . . the baroque palace . . . what happens in the 20th century? Do you see this style as a continuation of any one theme or principle? A complete rejection of the past?

2. Please choose any two of the following to write 1 paragraph for each:

1. Romanticism vs realism – define each and compare/contrast one example of each
2. Define Impressionism and describe two specific examples
3. Explain how the theme of war has influenced 20th century art – use two examples
4. Explain how the theme of psychology has influenced 20th century art – two examples
5. Choose one of the following artists and explain how they have contributed to art history with innovations: Picasso, Van Gogh, Dali (suggested 2-3 examples)

3. in this thread, I am asking you to think about the contemporary artist Marina Abramovic – she is one of the most well known performance artists and I will share a few of her performances here. Some students will really appreciate her take on art history issues such as the portrait, the human body, etc – while others are bored, or unimpressed. First, we see her most famous production at the Museum of Modern Art in New York: How does this performance re-imagine the concept of the portrait?

4. write two paragraphs for each following questions

1) Psychology and art have such connections in the 20th century – how important do you think the subconscious is in your own life? Do you like art that explores this connection?

2) Does it help or hurt to know something about an artist’s life? (think Van Gogh and others)

3) Impressionism – love it or hate it?
