Questions
Once youve selected the 10 artists you would like to focus on, youll need to research answers to the following seven questions or question groups:

Whats the year of the artists birth (and, where applicable, death)?
Where was the artist born? Where did he or she create the majority of his or her work (if at a different location than this place of birth)?
What medium did the artist use? Did he or she use more than one main medium?
Which art movement did the artist contribute to? If he or she contributed to more than one movement, where did this artist make the greatest impact?
What are some of the artists most famous works of art? Choose one of these works. In what ways is the piece characteristic of the movement specified above? (Include an image of the chosen piece.)
What challenges, if any, did the artist face that may have affected his or her work? What was happening in the world at that time that influenced the artists work?
Whats innovative about the artists work for that time period?
You’ll then write an APA-formatted essay that contains a title page, a brief introduction and conclusion, in-text citations supporting your research, and a reference list. Answer each question using complete sentences. The essay should be a minimum of 1,200 words. However, most students finish the project in about 2,000 words.

Answer the questions in essay format; do not answer them in list format.

References
As you read and research for this project, gather your sources information. Bookmark and save all URLs.

List all sources cited in your essay (including images). Begin your list on a new page after your conclusion paragraph. List sources alphabetically by authors last name (or title if author is unknown). Capitalize the first word of the title plus all major words except articles and prepositions.

Titles of books and websites are in italics while articles, postings, or smaller works are set in quotation marks. Youll need to list your course textbook, any other texts that you used, pieces of art you referenced, and websites you consulted. Below are four basic formats to work from:

Author last name, first initial. Middle initial. (Year published). Title of work. Location: publisher.

Author last name, first initial. Middle initial. (Year published). Title of article. Title of periodical, volume (issue), page range.

Author last name, first initial. (Year, month of date published). Title of webpage. Retrieved (date) from URL.

Artist. (Year). Title [Description of material]. Retrieved (date) from URL.

For example, your works cited page might look like this:
