Discussion Board Statement: These discussions are meant for you to jot down your thoughts and analyses of the works of the week. In art, everything is evaluated by your perspective. There is no right or wrong answer to be graded against; instead, you will be graded on how you defend your analysis of the art pieces and the use of the resources (when appropriate).In the first unit of this class, you completed a Discussion Board assignment that asked you to assess the role of technology in art during the Renaissance. Let us revisit that same question now, considering the second industrial revolution and the developments in art that coincide with it, including Impressionism and Modernism.

• Think about how you perceive the relationship between art and technology as it exists today.
• Without researching the topic, describe your current perception of this relationship based on your personal appraisal of the work itself.
• There is no right or wrong answer. Use specific examples of art from this week's reading to support your ideas.
