Ancient Mesopotamian art moving into early Egyptian art all borrowed concepts and ideas from the preceding culture and art movements. This week, I want you to pick two different cultures discussed in this week's reading. For each culture/movement chosen I want you to discuss their style of art and give specific examples of art pieces that manifest the qualities you discuss (either from the book or your own additional research). THEN draw connections between the older cultures art styles and how they influenced the newer styles you discuss, you can use specific examples. (make at least 2 different connections) and For example: "The contrapposto pose adopted by the Greeks to create a sense of life and movement in their human sculptures and painting was also adopted by the the later Roman art style to further enhance the sense of motion and realism in their art."
