Using one example of Native American art and one example of African art to support your ideas, explore the effects that European contact and colonialism had on these cultures and their artistic output. Consider this from as many angles as possible.
- How did European exploration impact the native population and influence the kind of art they were creating?
- What kind of different cultural developments might have occurred without European contact?
- How do these issues continue to reverberate well into the present day?
- Write as much as you can, use specific examples of art and architecture to support your position, and justify your stance on the impact of European contact and colonialism has on art.
- Remember to maintain an open-minded and respectful position when engaging with your classmates.
