What is Exquisite Corpse:

Pick one image from the 1708 Gallery Exhibition and write a full Art Critique w/ Description, Analysis, Interpretation and Judgment. The images for the show are on a slide show going across the top of the page on the 1708 page (see link above). I will also include an article about the show from RVA Magazine you may want to read over and reference.
When you finish the art critique you will also research what other art around Richmond is available for viewing. Go to my home page and scroll through the gallery list and select 5 gallery's to research. Tell me what is showing now and what will be showing if it changes before November 3rd. Describe the show, find a statement about the show and list the artist involved. You will still need to physically go to the gallery to write your critique, but prior research will help you select the piece you are most interested in writing about.
Whatever you don't finish today in class is your homework. See Helpful Hints below:
1st Paragraph-Description (first sentence-artists' names, date, media, size. 2nd-Discuss that it is part of the show at 1708 gallery. 3rd-what is an exquisite Corpse. 4,5,6,7-describe the 3 horizontal panels, what is in each panel how do they connect to each other.
2nd Paragraph-Analysis (8-9sentences): What elements and principles are important to this piece. Link Principles to elements in the same sentence.
3rd Paragraph-Interpretation (5-6 sentences): First restate the idea of exquisite corpse and how it is played. Then discuss each of the pieces. State which artist did what section (research the artist so that you can state specific information as to why you think they work on that section).
4th Paragraph-Judgment (at least 5 sentences). What do you think about his piece and why? Why did you select this piece to write about? How does it fit with the rest of the work from the show? What do you think about the show or the idea of Exquisite corpse?
