Directions for writing your paper:
Historically museums have been associated with governmental and institutional authority (royalty, the state, elites, the church, universities, etc.). More recently museums have claimed their value is derived from the communities they serve and are supported by. In your essay, please respond to the question “Where do museums derive their authority?” Feel free to agree or disagree with this characterization of museum history (and use specific examples to support your position). You are welcome to offer your own definition of authority or invoke someone else’s, but you must be explicit about what you mean by authority. You should support your argument with some specific examples, from readings or your own experience visiting museums.
Length: between 2000 and 2250 words of text proper written in Times New Roman, font size 12, double-spaced (or minimum 9 and maximum 10 full pages double spaced text), with footnotes or endnotes using Chicago Manual of Style (notes and bibliography style) – for guidance, see “AH Success Guides and Tips” posted on Blackboard.

Do not count nor number the title page. When including images include them after the text proper (please, do not insert any of the included images within your text).
For this paper you must be able to locate a minimum of six sources (including the textbook).
This is the textbook. Andrew McClellan’s The Art of Museum from Boullée to Bilbao (Berkeley, Los Angeles, London: University of California Press, 2008).
This is information about my visit to the muesum I recently visited the New Westminster Museum located in British Columbia, Canada. The museum’s website can be found at http://www.nwmuseumarchives.ca. My visit took place on May 25, 2023.
During my time there, I had the opportunity to explore their impressive collection and view various displayed works.The New Westminster Museum has a big collection that shows the history and culture of New Westminster and the area around it. They have artefacts, photos, documents, and artworks that help tell the story of the region.These pieces showcase the history and culture of New Westminster and its surrounding region. One important part of the collection is about the Indigenous peoples who have lived here for a long time. They show traditional carvings, masks, tools, and clothes that are important to the Coast Salish peoples. It was really cool to see these things and learn more about the Indigenous culture of the area.The museum does a great job of making the exhibits interesting and easy to understand, just like Andrew McClellan talked about in our textbook. The museum is laid out in a way that helps you follow the history of the region in order. The signs next to the displays give you clear and simple information. They also have interactive things like touch screens and audio guides that make it even more fun to learn.Overall, the museum tries hard to include everyone and make sure people in the community are involved. They also do a lot of educational things. I think these ideas are important, and the museum does a good job of following them. It’s a great place for people who live here and for people who are visiting.
I was able to virtually visit the museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. I was able to increase my knowledge about the famous Rijksmuseum. You can find their website athttps://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/rijksstudio. I explored it on May 25, 2023, and it was an amazing virtual experience.
The Rijksmuseum has a big collection that shows Dutch art and history from more than 800 years ago. They have lots of different kinds of art, like paintings, sculptures, fancy things, and old objects. The collection includes works by famous Dutch artists like Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Van Gogh, and many others.One of the best parts of the museum is their collection of paintings from the Dutch Golden Age. These paintings were made in the 17th century and show how talented the artists were. I was able to see on their website their famous paintings like “The Night Watch” by Rembrandt and “The Milkmaid” by Vermeer. The paintings were so detailed and the way they used light and shadows was really impressive.The museum does a great job of explaining the artworks in a historical way, just like Andrew McClellan talked about in our textbook. From the photos I can see that they have signs and labels that tell you interesting things about the art and the time period when it was made. It helps you understand and appreciate the artworks even more.The Rijksmuseum also wants to make sure everyone can enjoy and learn from their collection. They have programs and activities for people of all ages and backgrounds. They also have a website called Rijksstudio where you can see the artworks online and learn about them from anywhere.

Michelangelo’s David (the sculpture worked on by Michelangelo from 1501-1504). A recent AP World News article (updated March 28, 2024) brings that artwork into an immediate and contemporary context of advertising, influencing our reception of it today. The article is entitled “A fight to protect the dignity of Michelangelo’s David raises questions about freedom of expression” and is found at the following link: https://apnews.com/article/michelangelo-david-statue-italy-protection-heritage-3fa1b7185fea36003e064fa6e2c309fd
Read the AP article carefully,  State your opinion in 500 words on the kind of commercialization that is objected to by the present director of the Galleria dell’Accademia, Cecilie Hollberg, and has resulted in numerous lawsuits. Give credit for sources you cite or paraphrase, including the AP article itself, using Turabian Notes/Bibliography style (what we used for the Museum Paper assignment). See the Turabian QuickGuide as before for models: https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/turabian/citation-guide.html

Final Remarks:
This assignment is designed to encourage you to think critically and independently about feminist art history. Please use the above resources as a guide and seek out additional scholarly materials to support your arguments.
The main goal is to deepen your understanding of how to weave the methodologies of influential artists into the narrative of your analysis of their feminist practice. By examining the works and practices of established artists, you can gain insights into how to position any artwork within the broader art historical context.
Tasks :
Research and Analysis:
Deeply research the artist you have chosen for your final paper. Similar to our study of Bruguera, explore the key themes, methodologies, and impacts of their art.
Analyze how these elements are reflected in their works and how they resonate with or challenge existing art narratives.
Integration into Your Art Practice:
Reflect on how the methodologies of your chosen artist can influence your own  art historical critical  writing.
Prepare to articulate this integration in your final paper, drawing clear lines between their methods and your practice.
Drafting Your Paper:
Begin drafting your paper by outlining the main sections: Introduction, Analysis of the Artist’s Work, Integration into Your Practice, and Conclusion.
Ensure each section transitions smoothly into the next, maintaining a cohesive narrative that clearly communicates your thesis.
Guidelines for Effective Writing:
Clarity and Coherence: Your paper should clearly express your ideas and how they are influenced by your chosen artist. Each paragraph should have a clear purpose that supports your overall argument.
Critical Engagement: Go beyond surface-level analysis. Critically engage with the artist’s work and its broader implications. How does it challenge or reinforce current artistic trends?
Personal Reflection: Your paper should include personal reflection on how studying the artist has impacted your view of your own art. This introspection can provide valuable insights into your development as an artist.
Supporting Resources:
Please revisit the lecture materials on Tania Bruguera, especially the TED Talk and Artist Lecture provided in the module. These can serve as excellent models for how to discuss an artist’s impact comprehensively.
Utilize our library’s resources for additional scholarly articles or books on your chosen artist and related artistic movements.

This paper requires an exhibition of Getty Center in Los Angeles “Blood: Medieval/Modern”

Plese read the requirement below

Write a final draft of a Visual analysis paper on a painting called “Lot and His Daughters” created in 1550 by the School of Fontainebleau. I have already completed the first draft of the paper, I need help revising. I have attached and typed out the directions to write the final draft. Make sure to follow ALL directions please. No use of CHAT GPT or any AI software. Thank you. I have also attached the last draft of my paper that you will be revising. 
Here is the feedback I received on my last paper. Can you please incorporate it into the revised version?: “This essay is basically strong, and has some good visual analysis. Your comparisons are also well-chosen. But right now your argument is still purely visual – you haven’t done the required research to add historical and art historical context. To improve the essay, do more research about the School of Fontainebleau and its art historical context – look up that term in the database Oxford Art Online and Smarthistory, for instance. Also look carefully at the guidelines for using footnotes – they aren’t for illustrations, but for information you find in the recommended sources. We look forward to seeing your final revised version”

This is the final draft of a minimum 2000 word research paper. I’ve attached the annotated first draft— this draft was written with AI by a writer on here, which my professor is aware of. I need this to be ABSOLUTELY NOT written by AI, and to follow this provided outline with a grain of salt (use most sources, divert where needed etc.). Professor feedback should be incorporated!!! Architecture and art history is the focus, with historical effects and that of Roman Diplomacy eloquently tied in. Please take care with this, follow the rubric provided give thoughtful insights, and it will be run through a few plagiarism/AI checkers out of an abundance of caution.
