Journal Exercise for the Cummer Museum. Part of the collection is located on the Cummer site. Artists not on the site can be found on line. If you cannot find the particular painting by the artist on line, please feel free to select another work by the artist. I would like your journal to include as many images as possible from the Cummer. If this is not possible, works of art by artists represented at the Cummer is preferred. You may use several works by the same artist. The two images that you contrast/compare must be from two different time periods. The 1950 date is not one that you must adhere to, it is simply a suggestion. Don't forget to search the "Resource" list on this blog (to the right). Also, don't forget to briefly write (in your journal) about why you selected each set of images.
