You are to respond to the prompt found below in a 4 to 5-page paper. Read through all of the instructions that follow before beginning the assignment. Prompt: In response to the spread of postwar consumer culture and the expanding global economy, contemporary artists have reflected on the commodity status of art in their work. While many openly embraced art as a commodity, some even going as far as to include consumer goods in their work, a number of artists deliberately circumvented the production of art objects easily bought and sold on the art market and/or openly critiqued contemporary consumerism. For this paper, select four artworks that reflect different ways in which the commodity has been accounted for in contemporary artwork. Describe each artwork in some detail and analyze its formal properties and content, identifying the style/movement it is associated with. Also indicate when and where each artwork was created and address how the context in which the artist was working was influential on his/her artwork.Artwork selection: Select the four artworks thoughtfully. The artworks chosen must be representative of four different artistic styles/movements and must be taken from four different PowerPoints posted to the weekly modules. Properly identify each artwork (include the title, artist, and da
te). Your discussion of each artwork must address its formal properties and the relevant style/movement, subject matter, and the context in which it was created.References: Your paper should expand upon information found in the textbooks and course assignments (successful papers will not include text copied and pasted from course assignments, but instead consist of new text generated for this assignment).

You do not need to upload reproductions of the artworks.Please follow the instructions carefully; failure to do so will negatively affect your grade on the assignment.
