Description
For this assignment, write a 4-5 page, double-spaced paper, using the standard 5 paragraph essay format, comparing these two images: Dorothea Lange’s Migrant Mother, 1936 with Cindy Sherman’s Paintings #92.Consider the formal elements of color, space and line in these photographs. How does each of these elements inform or influence the deeper content and meaning of these works? Also, take into consideration when the images were made (their context). Does this influence or affect our reading of them? For example, Lange’s image was part a series of works that documented the plight of migrant workers during the Depression whereas Sherman’s image is a self-portrait “portraying” her version of a “centerfold.” The time period in which these images were created is important to how to understand them. Explain.Note: Your paper should be written in the third person—a more objective mode of presentation than the first person. This paper must follow all the guidelines set out in the syllabus. Please use standard Chicago style or MLA format and cite at least 3 sources in your paper. Please turn it in as a Word .doc file or a PDF.
