first identify which artistic movement you believe the work of art comes from. Be specific about the time periods. These are the various time periods we looked at (and you need to label the works of art as such):

• German Expressionism (I won't expect you to go as specific as der Blaue Reiter or Die Brucke)
• Austrian Expressionism
• Early Cubism
• Analytical Cubism
• Synthetic Cubism
• Futurism
• Suprematism
• Russian Constructivism
• Dada
• Die Neue Sachlichkeit or The New Objectivity
• Early Modern Architecture (on the slides, I'll ask you to label them as either Organic/Prairie Style or International)

Explain why you think what you do. Talk about how the work of art might relate to the artistic traditions of that time period. Talk about how the work of art might represent the cultural context from which it comes. Talk about whatever you can to explain why it would come from the time period you think! 

Which artistic movement does this best match? (Remember to be specific for Expressionism and Cubism)

1. What characteristics does it have that would make you label it that way? (Give at least 3 characteristics-- they can be about the art movement in general)
2. Give some context for this movement. How was it a reaction to the times?
