George Washington
by: Nathan Vulakh, Vadim Mell, Matthew Tuckman, Michael Itshakov, and Gabriel Vizgan
We looked at the symbolism behind the position of Washington, the objects in the painting, and the different aspects of the paint. We didn't pay attention to the art method. We would have like to pay more attention to his paint style if we had more time.

Night at the Brooklyn Museum
by: Manuel Sojan and Qing Ning Huang
We analyzed several features of the work of art. For instance, we reflected upon the historical context in great depth. This painting was created during the Depression Era. We evaluated to see how this historical time period could affect the emotions of the subject of the painting. However, we forgot to focus more on the formal properties of the painting, as we spent most of the time looking into the description and interpretation of the artwork. If we had more time, we would do some background research on the painting and the artist himself, and then apply the knowledge we gained to better understand the implications of the painting.

Looking Back Into the Future
by: Debbie Weng, Riya Kaushal
We looked at the colors and the techniques the artist employed in his painting. We failed to address the more formal properties to the painting, such as historical context and artist's intention, which we delved into more in depth later on during the workshop. If we had more time, I would have explored the museum and related paintings a bit more.

A Morning Snow Analysis
by: Sanzida Talukder, Saudia Baksh, Masuma Sultana
We began by simply describing what we saw. These descriptive analyses led to questions that were asked about the particular artwork. The first aspect that was noticed was the mood of the piece and how the color composition affected the overall feeling of the painting. We questioned the historical context and hypothesized what the artist's intention was for creating this artwork. We did not analyze the context of the painting but this could have been helpful in understanding the subject matter on a deeper level. More investigation on the artist's purpose could have also be done to further develop our understanding of the artwork as a whole.

Findings at the Brooklyn Museum
by: Taylor Burgos, Anisa Lajka, Katlyn Palmatier, Briana Atkinsr
We should have focused more on the formal properties of the piece such as the lines, shape and scale. Instead, we focused more on the colors, shading and the contrast between light and dark.

Cartonage of Nespanetjerenpare
by: Destany Batista, Christopher Tang, Jonathan Hakimian
The Cartonage of Nespanetjerenpare immediately caught our attention with its tall stature, vibrant colors, and intricate details. Because we had a plethora of audio, it was difficult to decide which aspects of our conversations were most significant to our understanding of the piece. However, we managed to create a concise and comprehensive video that promotes the main ideas expressed in our intellectual exploration of the cartonage.

Samantha and Nick’s Video on Portrait of a Lady
by: Samantha Vee & Nicholas Smith
We talked about the piece's formal properties in regards to its color scheme and details. We also focused on the historical context of the painting and the artist's intentions. We did not ask questions about the painting, which we would have done if we had more time.

We should have focused more on the formal properties of the piece such as the size, scale and lines. Instead, we focused on the colors and contrast in light that was used.

A Night At The Brooklyn Museum
by: Sunhee Nduwimana & Uju Nwaigwe
As a group, we did not fully focus on the interrogation aspect of the art. This can be seen as a weakness because it is important to ask questions for further understanding. Also, as a group we focused on our opinions rather on the artist's intentions. Overall, this night was a great realistic experience for all who attended.

Thomas Cole – A Pic-Nic Party
by: David Mashkevich, Diana Vasilevski
I think that we covered all of the types of analysis mentioned at the Media Arts Workshop. After listening to our recording, perhaps we could have done more analysis of formal properties – that is, the artist's choices in creating the painting. If given more time, I would have done this, as well as think more about the artist's intention in creating the painting. Perhaps we could have also discussed how the subject matter/content of the painting contributed to the artist's intentions.
