Project 4 review journal

1. Which projects did you review?

I reviewed all of the projects submitted.  I found many of them to be very good.  Some of my favorites that I did not choose were the exhibit on Points, and The exhibit on Nature and Weather: The Spirit of Earth.

 2. Why did you select the Exhibit you critiqued?

I selected Joe Fragione’s exhibit “The Queen City” Buffalo, NY inspired Art because I thought it was very good and a creative topic.  I liked that the exhibit was based on regional art.

 3. What challenges did you face in writing the critique article and how did you overcome them?

I think it is always difficult to critique someone else’s work.  This course has been my first real experience with the terms of art and the styles of art also added to this difficulty.  I overcame these difficulties by just writing about what I saw and felt about the exhibit.

 4. How do you feel about critiquing your peers work?

It is interesting to view classmates projects and all of the creative themes for the exhibits.  I felt a little awkward critiquing a classmate because we are all learning together in this course.  But I really enjoyed Joe’s exhibit and thought it was a creative topic that was much different from the other exhibits.

 5. Would you like to read the critique your peers wrote about your Art Curation Project?

I would have liked to have read my classmates thoughts on my project.  But unfortunately I did not get to turn mine in due to being at the hospital with my son. 

 6. On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate your finished article and why?

I would rate my article as a 6 due to being new at critiquing art. 

 7. Did you enjoy working on this project?

I did enjoy working on the project.  I had chosen the topic of landscapes throughout time and it was interesting to see how the styles changed over time.  Also how different cultures painted landscapes.
