Exam 2: March 13 (5:45-6:45PM)
Exam 3: April 24 (5:45-6:45PM)


Part I: SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONS

  • 1. Five terms will be listed. You will be asked to define four of them. (5 points each)

  • 2. Identification of key works. You will be asked to identify each work by title, artist, location (architecture), culture of origin, medium, patron and approximate date (millenium or century), and to answer a quesion based on each work. (10 points each)

    Part II: ESSAY QUESTIONS

  • 3. Two essays. Views of known works of art will be shown. You will be asked to identify the work by title, culture, period, and artist (if known) and patron and to discuss the object in relation to religion, to patronage, to the social, political setting of its making. In the first exam you will be asked questions based on works of art of the same culture of origin. In the second and third, you will be asked to compare two works cross cultures. (30 points each)

    REMINDER: Your goal is to answer the specific questions which are asked, not merely to tell us everything you remember about the particular work of art shown. A good essay has an introduction, followed by presentation of evidence, and a conclusion. Stop to organize before you write.
