15 May Construct a timeline that highlights artworks of four (4) community-based artists whose work reflects a specific historical style

Throughout your time on the interdisciplinary task force at a fictional not-for-profit organization, you have credited your knowledge of art periods as vital when assisting your clients with intelligently curated and informative exhibitions. Part of your success hinges on your ability to introduce clients, often non-art specialists, to historical classifications of visual art as you advise them. Most recently, you have been asked by the mayor of an American city to envision one such exhibition for his town’s upcoming Bicentennial celebration. Realizing the importance of this event, you have decided to prepare a briefing document that will speak of the town’s artistic creations and historical milestones that will be presented at the next city council meeting.

Instructions

For this assignment, you may use your current location or pick another American city. Refresh your understanding of styles of art with the readings given and locate artworks from four local artists from this town that are associated with four historical time periods that might be represented at an art exhibition commemorating the town’s history. Compare and contrast the artworks in terms of historical style and cultural significance. Then create an engaging and informative briefing document that will serve as a resource for your client to distribute at the next city council meeting. Your briefing document will:

· Construct a timeline that highlights artworks of four (4) community-based artists whose work reflects a specific historical style.

· Design the timeline so that it is printable and suitable for distribution to City Council members and attendees. (Tip: Use timeline templates found under the “Insert” tab in Word to create a printable format.)

· Organize the timeline chronologically to show where each artwork fits historically, with the associated art style clearly indicated by a pictorial example.

· Using the information you have listed within the timeline, you will:

· Analyze each artwork in a 2–3 paragraph summary, discussing its historical position and significance.

· Explain the unique qualities of each style, including aspects such as media, subject matter, or other defining features.

· Justify how artworks from these artists would contribute to the upcoming centennial art exhibition at City Hall.
