Virtual Gallery Visit

Part 1: Virtual Gallery Visit  (https://artsandculture.google.com )

Approximately 250 words (double space/PDF)

Using the Google Arts and Culture portal (link) find the “Museums” link. You will see an extensive list of museums and art galleries from all over the world. Begin to visit different galleries and museums to decide on the museum/gallery you want to focus on. Be aware that some sites are NOT galleries such as NASA, Time magazine etc.

Part 1 of your report will document your virtual experience of “visiting” the gallery. Discuss your experience describing what you saw and as you moved through the gallery. This should not be simply descriptive, as it must include your thoughts and reflections. There is some room here for creativity. You are seeing the architecture, interior design, displays, and the layout and presentation of art. What makes an impression on you? Why? Lastly, you must discuss how the artwork you have chosen is displayed. Does it enhance the viewing of the work? Would it have an impact on how a viewer might interpret the art? It is essential that at the beginning of your report you identify the museum, its location and also the artist and title of the artwork you have chosen.

Plagiarism

Using someone else’s words or ideas without acknowledging them is plagiarism. When the passage has been rewritten using your words you must still acknowledge the original source or you are plagiarizing. Plagiarism is a very serious issue in academia and will result in failure of the assignment, or worse, an entire course.  Make sure when you integrate your research to include in-text citations acknowledging your sources.
