Discussion: Cultural Work and Its Value

  

In this week's discussion, we are exploring cultural works and their value. Think of an object from the world around you that has a particular meaning or personal value to share with the class, one that holds particular significance. It can be a song, a dance performance, a painting, a figurine, a meme, and so on$.$ It can be any work that has historical or cultural value. This cultural work does not have to be the same as the one you are proposing for this week's milestone.

Create one initial post and follow up with at least two response posts.

For your initial post, address the following in a few paragraphs:

Identify the creator of the work, if known, and describe what cultural events you think influenced the artist to create this work.

Pick one or two characteristics that move you the most.

Describe how these characteristics affect your experience and led you to interpret the cultural work the way you did.

For your response posts, address the following:

Pick two peers who have an interpretation of a cultural work that might be different from your own.

What strikes you about your classmates' chosen works? How is your interpretation similar to or different from theirs?

What are some cultural events that you think might have influenced the artists?
