[ORDER SOLUTION] Virtual Museums

Museums are institutions created in the public interest. They engage their visitors, foster deeper understanding and promote the enjoyment and sharing of authentic cultural and natural heritage. Museums acquire, preserve, research, interpret and exhibit the tangible and intangible evidence of society and nature.  Museum visits increase students’ cultural capital; in turn, school groups help museums reach non-traditional museum goers. It is important to understand that  your visit to a museum is part of this course.  You will be writing a two page paper analyzing a work of Art chosen from your visit to a Museum of your choice or one of the Virtual Museums listed below.  Guggenheim Link  (Links to an external site.)

Discussion of how elements or structural system contribute to appearance of image or function e. Analysis of use of light and role of color, e.g., contrasty, shadowy, illogical, warm, cool, symbolic, etc. f. Treatment of space and landscape, both real and illusionary (including use of perspective), e.g., compact, deep, shallow, naturalistic, random g. Portrayal of movement and how it is achieved h. Effect of particular medium(s) used i. Your perceptions of balance, proportion and scale (relationships of each part of the composition to the whole and to each other part) and your emotional j. Reaction to object or monument Remember you must select a work of Art from a museum you visited whether in person or online. You must state which of the analysis processes your paper is based on, and must tell us which museum you selected the work from, and briefly explain why?    4. Citations: MLA format Minimum of 3 Citations Do not Plagiarize: What is Plagiarism? Plagiarism is the act of using others’ information without giving credit or acknowledging them. There are many examples of plagiarism. Completely copying another individual’s work without providing credit to the original author is a very blatant example of plagiarism. Plagiarism also occurs when another individual’s idea or concept is passed off as your own. Changing or modifying quotes, text, or any work of another individual is also plagiarism. Believe it or not, you can even plagiarize yourself! Re-using a project or paper from another class or time and saying that it is new is plagiarism. One way to prevent plagiarism is to add citations in your project where appropriate. sources: https://www.citationmachine.net/  (Links to an external site.)   5.
