Q:

Needing help with contrasting the differences and other things between the Ifle tower and the space needle. 

 

 

There are 6 of us assigned to this group. I have highlighted all of the broken down parts that everyone can choose to do.  Here is the assignment:

Prepare a 1,400- to 2,100-word, paper comparing a contemporary 20th century work of art to a historically similar work of art. Select a 20th century work of art (painting, sculpture, building, play, painting, poem, dance, music, etc.) and a similar work of art from the past.  
·         Include a minimum of six outside sources (other than the course text.)
Include section headings that identify the introduction, conclusion and the questions you are answering. Use at least four different resources.


2 people can: 
o    Identify each piece, each artist, the era of the historical piece, and the characteristics to be compared.
One team member break down the 20th century work of art-  Wendy
One team member break down the work of art from the past- ERIKA

2 people can:
o    Compare and contrast both pieces on elements such as style, tension, balance, composition, subject, and so forth.
One team member can compare the pieces   Regina
One team member can contrast the pieces Becky

o    Explain the creative process involved which resulted in the creation of each piece.

One team member can write the introduction and include a thesis sentence and a conclusion. I think this person can edit and turn in the final paper. Nicole would like to do this part if that is ok with everyone.

 

Include section headings that identify the introduction, conclusion and the questions you are answering. Use at least four different resources.

So our two structures, both built for world's fairs, are:

The Eiffel Tower - 19th century

and
The Space Needle - 20th century
