essay questions on art appreciation

As art teachers, we know the importance of creativity and the joy of making something with your own hands, but we also know the power of looking at the artworks of others.

Looking at art is an emotional, independent experience. Each person looking at a work of art will view it through the lens of their life and draw different meanings based on what they see. Talking about art allows us to break free of our solitary interpretations and uncover new insights.

Classroom art discussions are a launching pad for creativity, collaboration, and cognition. By exposing our students to works of art, giving them the space to examine their reactions, and opening a dialogue to share their thoughts, we help them develop empathy, connect with history, flex their critical thinking and observation skills, and consider the human spirit.

If you haven’t done it before, starting a classroom art discussion can be intimidating, but the benefits are worth overcoming the nerves. Below you’ll find 82 questions you can use to start and extend conversations about works of art with your classes. If you’d like more guidance, check out my five tips for leading a meaningful classroom art discussion .

Grab this art questions list and an artwork from 10 Artworks Perfect for an Art Criticism Lesson for older students or 20 Great Artworks to Look at with Young Kids for younger children, and start talking about art with your students!

It’s interesting to know that appreciating art can be an emotional and independent experience. I’m taking Engineering courses right now but visiting a museum once with my friend made me realize how wonderful art is, even if it doesn’t have any direct relation to my chosen degree. It might be a good idea to look into realistic sculptures and start studying art from there.

Key Elements of Art for Analysis

Visual elements of art.

  • Line : A fundamental element that can vary in width, direction, and length. Different types of lines, including contour lines and hatching, help define shapes and shades within the artwork. Horizontal lines suggest rest, while vertical lines communicate height.
  • Shape and Form : Shapes are two-dimensional figures, including geometric and organic types, while forms exist in three dimensions. Understanding these helps in recognizing how objects are portrayed in space.
  • Color : This element enhances the emotional qualities of the artwork. Artists use primary, secondary, and tertiary colors to convey moods, and contrasting colors can create visual interest. Warm and cool colors evoke various emotional responses, while the value and intensity of colors significantly impact the overall aesthetic.
  • Texture : Represents the surface quality of an artwork, expressed through visual cues. It may suggest how an object would feel if touched, adding another layer to the analysis.

Module 2: What Is Art?

Why it matters: what is art, define “art” within the context of the ongoing discussion about its meaning (course level learning objective), introduction.

As a thought experiment, imagine what a society without art would be like? How would buildings look? Could any kind of visual communication exist at all? It’s a provocative question that quickly necessitates defining the boundaries of what does and does not constitute art. This mirrors the complexity of engaging in the ongoing definition of art.

Art is studied because “it is among the highest expressions of culture, embodying its ideals and aspirations, challenging its assumptions and beliefs, and creating new visions and possibilities for it to pursue” (Sayre, XVI). When we discuss contemporary art, we are typically referring to the practice of fine art, but prior to the Renaissance, art was defined within the realm of functional crafts, such as goldsmithing. The idea of autonomous art or art for art’s sake developed later, over many eras.

Nkisi Nkondo, Congo, c. 1880-1920. In the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, PA

The material covered in this section will help you understand how we arrived at our contemporary understanding of art and how to begin engaging in the ongoing definition and discussion of art.

How to study for the Performance Assessment (PA)

The PAs for this module are answering short essay questions that are designed to test your understanding of the learning outcomes (listed above) for this module. Read through the two performance assessments for this module BEFORE you begin the module content. I suggest printing them out, or making notes of the keywords in each question. Then, as you read through the module content take notes on the subjects or anything that you find relevant to the PA questions. Be sure to document the page or place in the content where you found each note, in case you need to return to that content, or need to ask me a specific question citing module content. Once you are ready to complete the PAs, you will have these notes to help you answer the questions thoughtfully.
