Here is a link to a new essay titled "No Fun" by Tina Rivers Ryan.
It's a fresh piece, published just two weeks ago in the influential art magazine Artforum. This essay directly addresses some of the grim realities of our new situation. Let this act as a trigger warning; some students would probably rather not address these issues at this time. And that's ok. Likewise, you might not want to click on the online exhibition titled "Well Now, WTF?" that Rivers Ryan mentions in her Artforum essay.
If you choose this topic for your essay, remember to find some research that supports your position and ideas about online art in the age of quarantine. Make the essay your own. You are not parroting the work of others, but skillfully using their evidence to support your own unique ideas. Get specific. Those two words will always improve your writing.
Please remember that you're also free to write and research a subject of your choice (as long as it's not recycled work from a previous class or assignment). Talk to me if you have questions.
