SMP II Artist Statements/ Research

 

 

Phase V: Final Draft of Artist Statement Essay and Abstract

 

 

After meeting with me to review your first draft of your artist essay and abstract you should continue your research and reading with particular attention to comments made during the edit sessions and mid-term critique.

 

A.   Artist Statement

This draft should contain all materials from before with any additional materials if appropriate (other artist comparisons and or non-art source references).   This time around you should focus on crafting the text into a more coherent, readable essay. This essay should be boiled down to 8 pages. The essay should be properly footnoted. You should update your annotated bibliography if necessary and append it to the essay.

 

           B.  Artist Statement Abstract

You should continue to perfect language and condense ideas. Your abstract should be no more than 500 words.  This abstract will accompany your exhibition so consider your audience when redrafting.

 

 

Take your redraft to the writing center! This draft is due on Monday 3/28 (digital file) to be edited by you and your critique partner.
