Research and prepare a PowerPoint presentation to present to the class on the 9th July. It should be 10 minutes long and include 3 artists that you are interested in and inspired by.

1. Presentation
Prepare a 10 minute Power Point (or similar) to present to the group in September.
This should be based on the work of three artists that are inspirational to you and
who create work that is connected in some way.
Your presentation should also be based on your own in-depth research into an area
of interest for the personal investigation.
You could look at some of the themes listed on MoMA Learning or art2day as a
starting point to help you choose your subject matter for the personal study
https://www.moma.org/learn/moma_learning/themes or you might be inspired by
an exhibition visit.
Practice PP due in 9th July. I want you to present to
the class in two weeks time as a practice.

4. Definition of Folk Art
There are many different ways to think about folk art. In fact, there is no one definition of folk art. In
collecting and displaying folk art, the museum considers various concepts.
Generally, folk art is ART that:
• May be decorative or utilitarian
• May be used every day or reserved for high ceremonies
• Is handmade; it may include handmade elements, as well as new, synthetic, or recycled
components
• May be made for use within a community of practice or it may be produced for sale as a form of
income and empowerment
• May be learned formally or informally; folk art may also be self-taught
• May include intangible forms of expressive culture like dance, song, poetry, and food
• Is traditional; it reflects shared cultural aesthetics and social issues. It is recognized that, as
traditions are dynamic, traditional folk art may change over time and may include innovations in
tradition.
• Is of, by, and for the people; all people, inclusive of class, status, culture, community, ethnicity,
gender, and religion
