BAROQUE ART

The Protestant Reformation and the Roman Catholic Counter-Reformation had major influences on the Western art world, out of which Baroque art would emerge. Artists and artworks became an essential arm of the church, needed to inspire faith and commitment within an institution that found itself destabilized by this schism. Though Baroque artists continued to use the vocabulary of ancient Greeks and Romans, as had Renaissance artists, there were major shifts in how religious imagery would be depicted. Compare two Baroque artworks, Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s sculpture Ecstasy of St. Teresa with Caravaggio’s painting, Crucifixion of St. Peter, in order to identify and discuss this shift in religious imagery. Again, give a formal analysis of each painting in order to distinguish the different approaches of these two artists, but this time pay close attention to light, movement, and theatricality. Make a brief comparison to Renaissance art in order to illustrate the shift in art periods. Use the required course materials to help you discuss, briefly, (1) the history of Baroque art and these two artists in particular, (2) the role of the church, and (3) how Bernini and Caravaggio differently conveyed faith and commitment to the church.

It is important to note that this assignment is your second introduction to Art History and Art Criticism, so it is imperative that you continue to exercise your ability to visually analyze. The required course materials under “How To Write About Art: Art Criticism and Formal Analysis” will continue to aid you in developing these skills.

Here are five keys to writing a great case assignment! For each case paper in this course, please:

  1. Make sure you fully address the case assignment prompt- don't just describe the painting and don’t forget to ‘really look’ at the painting. Be sure to respond to the expectations stated under "Learning Outcomes" in the Syllabus.
  2. Apply ideas from the background readings to your analysis and discussion of the case assignment prompt.
  3. Write, at minimum, three to four pages, not including images or references.
  4. Include a separate cover page that includes your name, the course name, the module, and assignment name.
  5. Set your format to 1" margins on all four sides, 12-point font, double-spaced.

Include a separate cover AND reference page at the end that includes every website and article on which you base your information and analysis. In the reference list, please note that a URL with no additional information is not a complete reference. Over time, link root will make any URL useless. Each reference should contain all the information a reader would need to find the source.

Assignment Expectations

  • An explanation of the values—influences, themes, techniques, subjects—characteristic of the period or style under study.
  • Some information about how the social, political, or religious history of the period influenced its art and artists.
  • Biographical information about the artist whose work is assigned or (in SLP assignments) chosen for reflection.

Module 2 - SLP

BAROQUE ART

Select a work of art from the Baroque era that catches your eye, other than the one reviewed in the Case assignment. It can be one that reminds you of an event from your own life or otherwise elicits some kind of emotional reaction. It is not necessary to include an image of the artwork.

SLP Assignment Expectations

  • Write a two- to three-page essay discussing how the artwork of your choice reflects the typical values and characteristics of Baroque art.
  • Provide a brief background on the artist as well as a description of the work.
  • Include observations of a few stylistic elements to produce a convincing argument.
