What Z code or codes would you consider for Christina? How would including these systemic considerations help you understand Christina’s presenting symptoms and consider your treatment approach?

Read the following vignette, keeping in mind the importance of knowing symptoms and their duration and severity:

Christina is a 25-year-old Mexican-American woman who has been working as an elementary school teacher since she graduated from college three years ago. Although she does well at her job, she has been feeling low ever since she left college.

When she took this teaching position, she had to relocate to a city over four hours away from her family and the house she grew up in.

Even though she has made some new friends, Christina still feels disconnected and lonely. She is also concerned about her mother, who has been diagnosed with a serious health condition.

For the past month, Christina has felt much worse. She reports feeling very sad and tired most of the time and is having difficulty concentrating at work.

She says that she does not have enough energy to accomplish the things she would like to do. She admits to overeating to “unwind” after school, and is concerned she is sleeping too much on the weekends. She also has very low self-esteem, despite being well-liked at her school and receiving good performance evaluations.

Christina describes her life as “heading nowhere” and says that lately she has felt extremely hopeless. She wonders if she will ever feel as happy as she did when she was in college. She does not have a history of ever feeling worse than this, and is in good health.

Based on the information presented, address the following questions in your discussion post using headings to match content in each bullet point:

1. What diagnosis would you consider assigning to Christina? Describe the process you used for making this decision, including “Differential Diagnosis by the Trees” from the DSM-5 Handbook of Differential Diagnosis or Section II of your text, Desk Reference to the Diagnostic Criteria From DSM-5®.

2. What Z code or codes would you consider for Christina? How would including these systemic considerations help you understand Christina’s presenting symptoms and consider your treatment approach?

Defining Art Criticism:
Art criticism is responding to, interpreting meaning, and making critical judgments about specific works of art.·

Art critics help viewers perceive, interpret, and judge artworks.

Critics tend to focus more on modern and contemporary art from cultures close to their own while art historians tend to study works made in cultures that are more distant in time and space. You are going to be a critic!

When initially introduced to art criticism, many people associate negative connotations with the word “criticism.”
A professional art critic may be:
a newspaper reporter
a scholar writing for professional journals or texts, or·
an artist writing about other artists.

of the below sections. So, one paragraph for the describe section, one paragraph for the analyze section, one paragraph for the interpretation section, and one paragraph for the judgment section.

What is the overall visual effect or mood of the work(s)?

Analyze:

Mentally separate the parts or elements, thinking in terms of textures, shapes/forms, light/dark or bright/dull colors, types of lines, and sensory qualities. In this step consider the most significant art principles that were used in the artwork.

Describe how the artist used them to organize the elements. (YOU NEED TO TALK ABOUT ELEMENTS OF ART AND PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN)

Suggested questions to help with analysis:

How has the artist used colors in the work(s)?
What sort of effect do the colors have on the artwork?

How has the artist used shapes within the work of art?

How have lines been used in the work(s)? Has the artist used them as an important or dominant part of the work, or do they play a different roll?

What role does texture play in the work(s)? Has the artist used the illusion of texture or has the artist used actual texture?

How has texture been used within the work(s).
How has the artist used light in the work(s)? Is there the illusion of a scene with lights and shadows, or does the artist use light and dark values in a more abstracted way?

What do you think it means?

What does it mean to you?

How does this relate to you and your life?

Why do you think that the artist chose to work in this manner and made these kinds of artistic decisions?

Why did the artist create this artwork?

Judgment:

After careful observation, analysis, and interpretation of an artwork, you are ready to make your own judgment. This is your personal evaluation based on the understandings of the work(s). Here are questions you might consider:

Why do you think this work has intrinsic value or worth (not the price of the work)? What is the value you find in the work(s)? (For example, is it a beautiful work of art, does it convey an important social message, affects the way that see the world, makes insightful connections, reaffirms a religious belief, etc.)

Do you think that the work(s) has a benefit for others?
Do you find that the work communicates an idea, feeling or principle that would have value for others?
Could the reason you find the work lacking come from a poor use of the elements of art?

Explain Is the subject matter appealing/unappealing, imaginative/unimaginative, or appealing/repulsive? How?
What kind of an effect do you think the work could have for others?

Rather than seeing the work as being very effective or without total value, does the work fall somewhere in-between? Do you think that the work is just o.k.?

What do you base this opinion on? The use of elements of art? Lack of personal expression? The work lacks a major focus?

Explore your criticism of the work(s) as much as you would any positive perceptions. Realize that your own tastes and prejudices may enter into your criticism. Give your positive and negative perceptions.

Political and Protest art

Double spaces, Times New Roman, 12pt font.

Activist art is a term used to describe art that is grounded in the act of ‘doing’ and addresses political or social issues.

The aim of activist artists is to create art that is a form of political or social currency, actively addressing cultural power structures rather than representing them or simply describing them.

In describing the art she makes, the activist artist Tania Bruguera said, don’t want art that points to a thing.want art that is the thing’.

Activist art is about empowering individuals and communities and is generally situated in the public arena with artists working closely with a community to generate the art.

1. Before you do the reading, think about the description of activist art above and then think back over the class and the artists, movements, and periods that we have discussed. Can you think of an artist that you have learned about in this class that fits into the above definition of activist art?

The following two links present a brief history of protest art from the Dadaists to today. Read the articles on the following links and then answer the questions below.
https://www.format.com/magazine/features/art/brief-history-protest-art

1. Define protest art. What does it mean to you? What kinds of issues to protest artists address?

2. We have come across Dada before when you had to watch the video of the sound poem performance by Hugo Ball (who wore the lobster claw suit). How does Dada fit into the above description of activist art? How is that performance an example of activist art?

3. What does the graffiti artist Banksy address in his work? Look up an example of his work and explain what is being protested.

4. Compare Banksy's work to the Arab Spring movement. What is similar about them?

5. As you discovered in the reading, a lot of activist artists utilize graffiti in their practice. Why do you think these two things, graffiti and activist art, go so well together? What about graffiti lends itself well to protest artists?

6. Which artist/artist group did you read about that you found the most intriguing? Why?
