When writing a paper about works of art, you'd better pay attention to the following two points: 1. What does the artist want to express? 2. How does the artist express it? This standard can be used in several situations. This is a good standard (if you don't look at the work divorced from reality). This standard draws a bottom line. When you look at a work on this bottom line, you will avoid evaluating it too well or too low. You can write books, movies, theatrical performances, paintings, music and any creative works of art in this way. A lot of work time in writing art papers is spent analyzing works and writing outlines. In writing, you will face many challenges, but if you have a perfect and solid outline, the paper will be easy to write. Difficulty: briefly explain what you need: the graphic of the work you want to write, analyze the work with computer/pen and paper 1, and write what you think the artist wants to express through the work. The famous Mona Lisa painted by Leonardo da Vinci in the16th century is well known and profound. Obviously, you can't know exactly what Leonardo himself wants to convey through this portrait. Many accomplished art historians have written many articles about this painting. So, what can you say? Lots and lots. In this example, in a paper about the famous painting Mona Lisa, you can conclude that the artist tried to tell the story of a special woman through a portrait. This seems obvious, but you should remember that the work you want to describe is very different, for example, a religious teaching painting or a modern abstract painting, so the evaluation of this special work will be completely different. 2. Write down your understanding and feelings when you see this creative work. For example, what do you feel from the woman painted by Leonardo da Vinci? These feelings are not necessarily related to her identity, but if you know the story behind her, you will be more impressed. Describe your reaction as realistically and concretely as possible. I don't care if I have authority. You don't have to be a professional art critic or have painted famous Italian paintings to write a good article about the Mona Lisa. 3. Check steps 1 and 2. Is your reaction consistent with what the artist wants to express-is this work of art successful? Remember, it doesn't matter whether you like what you write or not. The important thing is that you are writing an analysis of works of art with your own feelings. Remember, you can write an article and compare successful and unsuccessful works in the same way. 4. List all variables in the process of creating works-decisions made consciously or unconsciously by all artists. In the case of Mona Lisa, these variables can be theme, composition, materials (pigment and texture), color tone, brush strokes and degree of detail expression. 5. Write a brief introduction under each variable. For example, in Mona Lisa, you can write "theme-female", "composition-recent portrait, picture center", "tone-tranquility" and so on. The statement and outline of the paper are finalized 1. Use the above steps to write a draft statement. Don't use the first person, even if your own feelings influence many of your thoughts. The draft statement can be "Da Vinci's Mona Lisa is a beautiful painting, using Renaissance painting techniques, but the theme remains a mystery." Your statement can't be "The Mona Lisa is so beautiful". 2. Integrate the variables in the statement. You don't have to write all the variables in the list, you can write a paragraph for each variable. 3. Write down how each variable makes the work successful (or unsuccessful). Write the text 1. The more detailed the variable description, the better. Write your own feelings. Generally speaking. These descriptions will make readers more convinced of your point of view. 2. Write a fascinating introduction and a satisfactory summary. 3. Proofread the article.
