How to Analyze Art
1. Define the Purpose of the Artwork (theme/meaning): 2. Analyze the Elements of Art
 * to create beauty
 * to reveal truth
 * to immortalize
 * to express religious values
 * to stimulate the intellect
 * to create order and harmony
 * to create chaos
 * to reflect society and culture
 * to protest injustice/raise social consciousness
 * to express the universal
 * to meet the needs of the artist
 * Locate the Focal Point (where your immediate attention/eye goes).
 * Define the Medium (painting, fresco, sculpture, photography).
 * Abstract or Realistic, Apollonian or Dionysian?
 * Analyze the use of light and dark. Does color saturation or hue create a psychological effect or mood?
 * Analyze the effect of Texture (brush strokes, molding strokes).
 * Analyze Lines, Shapes, and Space (look for overlapping, relative size, position, and linear perspective).
 * Define the purpose of objects/figures and their relative size and placement.
 * Explain any symbols/themes (people, objects, colors, placement, and size). Does your piece convey a social or political message?
