Description of Exhibition Art history Curator Paper Write a description of your exhibition [minimum 1000 words] that includes citations and a bibliography of your references in MLA format.
In the Curator Paper, I’d like you to pretend that your Proposal and Bibliography has been accepted by a museum and you’ve now been asked to supply more information about your exhibit and explain and justify it further. You must use and cite reliable sources within your writing using MLA format. I am including links below that explain how to cite your sources. Your paper must address the following questions: What works are in your exhibition? What is the theme of the exhibition? How does each of the works you chose fit with that theme? What is the goal of the exhibition – what do you hope your viewers will learn from visiting the show? Also, you should specify how you intend to arrange the works of art, and how you plan for your audience to move through space. Basically, I want you to write a paper as if you are a curator who is proposing this show to your donor who knows nothing about the artwork.
