Competency
Develop a vocabulary for criticizing, evaluating, and describing works of art.

For this assessment task, you are asked to act as an art critic and analyze a series of works. When art critics discuss art, they describe art works in terms of style and medium. Art critics interpret meanings of art and make judgements of a work's validity to the importance of a piece in the larger context of art history and culture. Art critics also evaluate art in the context of aesthetics.
