    SELF-ASSESSMENT No.

    1
    Directions: Answer the following activities by responding to the question. Answer your best knowledge or
    idea. Write your answer in a separate sheet of paper.

    Activity #1: Expose Yourself to Art!

    What has been your exposure to visual art? Has it been primarily from your family? School? Social
    activities? Personal explorations? Do you make art? If so, what kind? What is the medium you use? What
    kind of style is it? Look under "style" in chapter 1 to get a better idea of what it might be.  Who is your
    audience? If you haven’t made any art, have you ever wanted to? What kind?

    Activity #2: A Definition of Art

    Do you agree with the definition for ‘art’ as it’s explained in chapter 1? Why or why not? Can you add to
    the definition? Is your definition coming from a subjective or objective perspective?

    Activity #3: Investigating Art

    Using the external links as a resource, find a work of art to answer the following questions. The artwork
    can be from any culture or time period.

     Provide the title, date and artist’s name. Make sure your source has all of this information.
     What medium is used (painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photograph or digital image,
    video, installation or performance)?

    Give a short description of the work:

     Is it realistic, abstract or non-objective?


     What does it depict? What colors are used?
     What category does it fall under?
     What artistic role does it play?  Does it take on more than one role? Review the different roles
    discussed in Module 1 to help you decide.

    Activity #4: Style, Form & Content

    Artistic styles change over time and throughout cultures, yet some forms continue to be repeated despite
    the changes. Examining these forms helps in finding the meaning.
    View the three works of art from the hyperlinks below. They are all from different time periods and
    cultures. Notice how each one has a repeated formal element similar to the others.

     What style and category does each work belong to?


     Do these similarities have ties to a common meaning between all of them, or do you think the
    meaning for each work is separate from the others? Why or why not?
     What cultural, religious or other considerations do you take into account in defining your answers?
