Catalogue Entry Assignment: Pay Close Attention

 As everyone should know by now, your First-Year Portfolio Review will take place on Tuesday, March 29. There are no classes scheduled that day, so your only on-campus commitment will be your review.

Part of your portfolio will be your "Catalogue Entry". Sometimes "catalogue" is spelled "catalog". We are teaching this unit in all of the sections of the "Writing for the Arts" classes.

Your catalogue entry will be a single-spaced document of between 200-350 words that focuses on one single work of an artist that you will choose from a long list of recent participants from the last five Whitney Biennials: 2012, 2014, 2017, 2019, 2022. Here is a list. Have fun. Use the internet to do further research. 

Tuesday, March 8: Choose artist, work, and three solid reasons why. Upload to class discussion board on Populi no later than 1:00 pm.

Thursday, March 10: Finished and complete draft, uploaded no later than 1:00 pm (5 pts)

Spring Break!

Tuesday, March 22: Bring an intermediate draft on paper with you to class. One-on-one five-minute conferences.

Thursday, March 24: FINAL version due. Upload to Populi no later than 1:00 pm. No Casual Mistakes! (5 pts)

Tuesday, March 29: First-Year Portfolio. No Class.
