Resarch Paper

Explore the work of one Hispanic artist or group of artists, for example Diego Rivera, Jose Orozco, and David Alfaro, from the 20th century to describe how their work made an impact in Latin America. What did they contribute? How were they influenced by the historical moment? How did their work reflect the society they lived in? How were their aesthetic choices influenced by their surroundings?

You can write about any topic you can relate to the material in this Latino American and Latino studies class. You can write about artists in the visual arts, music, film, theater, dance, performance art, or any other art movement that you can relate to the topics in this class. Previous topics have ranged to Chicano muralism, the analysis of feminist themes in Frida Kahlo’s work, to Banksy, Guayasamin, to Bad Bunny.

NO FRIDA KAHLO BIOGRAPHIES!! If you would prefer writing about her go deeper into her impact on art. Look at her work, her influence and how the events in her life influenced her work. During her life, she was not well known as an artist, but mostly as Rivera’s eccentric wife. Analysis of her work, her influence, etc. are okay.

​Five-page minimum​ MLA format, double spaced with additional bibliography. Please use at least two text sources. NO WIKIPEDIA, no cutting, and pasting from the internet.
