Successful Public Health Intervention 1 page The essential job of public health agencies is to identify what makes people healthy and what makes them sick, and then take the steps necessary to ensure that the population encounters a maximum of the former and a minimum of the latter. Describe a successful public health intervention in your community, city, and/or state. Describe the public health problem. Discuss the public health intervention/initiative. Use credible research to detail the intervention success and/or failure. Art 1 page Question 1: Defining Art In a minimum of 2 well-developed paragraphs, address the following questions: Do you consider a beautifully made tool to be a work of art? Is a utilitarian or functional object automatically excluded from being art? Explain why you feel this way. In your response, discuss whether knowing the social and historical context matters when determining whether an object should be classified as a work of art. Must an object display certain visual characteristics to be considered art? If so, what are those characteristics? Question 2: Paleolithic Cave Painting As we learned this week, art historians analyze a work of art using a specific vocabulary to describe its physical and visual properties, and by interpreting its subject matter, symbolism, and socio-historical context. Survey your course textbook and reliable online sources for a photograph of a Paleolithic cave painting from Pech-Merle, France; Altamira, Spain; or Lascaux, France. First, fully identify your selected cave painting by its location and approximate date. Read about your selected cave painting in the course textbook and/or through reliable online resources. In a paragraph of 5-7 sentences, describe the composition of the painting; its overall subject matter; the meaning of some of the objects in the painting; and any social, historical, and/or cultural factors that are important to understanding the painting. Be sure to provide citations for any outside sources you reference in this part of your response. Art Sculpture 1 page Question 1: Sculpture in Ancient Civilizations The civilizations studied this week created impressive works of sculpture, with varying purposes and meanings. Carefully examine the following sculptures, and read about each one in your textbook, course and video lectures, and through reliable internet resources: Stele of Naram-Sin, c. 2254-2218 BCE Palette of Narmer, c. 3150-3125 BCE Akhenaton and Nefertiti and their three daughters, c. 1350 BCE Then, in a well-developed paragraph of at least 5-7 sentences, describe the composition of each sculpture, including the representation of figures, objects, and space. Consider whether the figures fit into the space around them, whether their movements seem believable, and/or whether their clothes fit their bodies properly. What does the way the figure and objects are represented tell us about the time and place in which the sculpture was created? What similarities or differences do you observe in the compositions of the three works? Next, in a second paragraph of at least 5-7 sentences, describe the overall subject matter of each sculpture; the meaning of some of the objects in the painting; and any social, historical, political, and/or religious factors that are important to understanding the painting. Explain what the subject of the sculpture tells us about the society and culture in which it was created. Be sure to provide citations for any outside sources you reference in this part of your response. Question 2: Monumental Architecture The cultures we studied this week produced grand architectural structures. Carefully examine the following structures, and read about each one in your textbook, course and video lectures, and through reliable internet resources: Ziggurat, Ur, c. 2100 B.C.E Aerial view of the Fourth Dynasty pyramids (looking north), Gizeh, c. 2601-2515 BCE Lion Gate, Mycenae, c. 1250 BCE Then, in a minimum of 3 well-developed paragraphs, answer the following questions about each structure: Who created each structure? Who commissioned its creation? What was the function of the structure? What historical events or social or cultural influences affected the creation of each structure? How do the visual characteristics of each structure contribute to or enhance its message or meaning? How do the reasons these structures were created compare with those of a more modern example of monumental art work, such as Mount Rushmore, the 9/11 Memorial, etc.? Be sure to provide citations for any outside sources you reference in this part of your response.
