Assignment no 1

Research Paper Topic:

750 words max.

Deadline: Tues 1 April 2008

Choose an artwork currently on exhibit at the National Gallery of Australia (including Sculpture Garden) that relates to/references issues of the body and/or embodiment. The artwork may take the form of sculpture, installation, video performance, carving, jewelry, metal-work, or painting. Demonstrate your scholarly research abilities by identifying the historical, social and cultural context of the work by the artist/s, and discuss how the body is textualised in the work, and its wider significance.

This is a research paper and conventional scholarly referencing still applies. However, should you wish, you may adopt a more “relaxed” presentational style and be creative in terms of your response to the work. Please email your tutors or see the course convener if you have any queries.

All essays are to be submitted to the School of Humanities office. Make sure you use the correct cover sheet and place the essays in the essay chute for date stamping. It is your responsibility to keep a copy of the essays. The essay chute is cleared at 4.45 pm daily. Essays submitted after 4.45 pm will be stamped the next day. We do not accept essays by email or fax.
