Tanya: focus by trying to get rid of "It is"

Ernest- I think the syntax needs work; try reading it aloud

We can clearly see how society's attitude toward homesexuals has changed through the art of the past and present, but their attitudes haven't changed enough for individuals to see past their stereotypes.

I liked your example so I used it. I hope it's all right. Do I need to make a new outline? I think it would only be a little different than my old one.

Thesis: Should the Visible Human Project be allowed to exist? Though controversial, this project has provided science with valuable insights into human anatomy.

the picture of the monk's dead body is an example of art's controversy that has both negative and positive effects.

art is a kind of culture; it shows variously places’, different periods’ faith, environment, study. It has a relatively free space in which to create more complicated forms of public interaction.
art has the power to change society.

THESIS: Shock artist's use of extreme media and method often results in religious or moral controversy.

I'm not sure if this is specific enough but there is plenty of material to use for it and there are so many different types that i didn't want to focus on a specific one.

Shock artist's use of extreme media and method often results in moral controversy but takes advantage of freedom of speech in order to satire our society and culture.

In our society today the rare high media exposed advertisement campaigns such as the Dove campaign for real beauty is necessary for a counter balance of what the general public sees in size negative zero high fashion models.

Ms. H- I'm not sure if this topic or thesis is okay -- I believe media/advertisements is a form of art, because of the exposure of pictures/concepts in expression, let me know if I need another art thesis though.
Thank you.

Art and science both contribute to the young people's education being on the opposite ends of the educational spectrum.

Makeup makes women look fabulous and become an art; but in the other hand, it destroys women's self confidence in a long run.

ps, i am not sure is this an example of controversial argument. (natural beauty versus makeup beauty?)

you don't need to make a new outline, no, Ernest. And it's okay about the example; you made it your own.

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Tina- good. Very clear argument

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Zhou- the thesis is too general. Try to pick a particular form of art: a song, graffiti, a particular artist. Explore the impact of that one art/artist.

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Sabrina, I am getting that you are against shock art. Am I right? Just checking; it is a great thesis if that is your stance.

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Jaq- yes, I agree; this is a great thesis and topical too. The wording needs a little work though: try reading it aloud

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Oksana: good- just make this more of an argument instead of a fact. Art and Science, though at opposite ends of the spectrum, both contribute importantly to the thesis.

The "importantly" implies an opinion that you could argue

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Katrina- awesome choice. You can argue passionately for this. You do have a comma splice in the line though...

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Mary Grace: YES! This is a great argument and related to art. Go for it.

Hip Hop music a form of controversial art, can have aits negative and positive effects to its music.

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Irela- a great issue to argue. Check the syntax carefully (try reading aloud)

Thesis: There should be stricter censorship laws on network television that protect young people and our society from exposure to immoral behavior.

I believe media is a form of art,such as television. Hopfully, this thesis is okay.Also, if i stand on one side, do i need to write somethings on the other side?Does it necessary? Moreover, the blog said the thesis must be done by Saturday, 10/21, but 10/21 is Sunday. Hopfully, this is not the late work. Thanks

Anna Marie Hibble said...

Wai, looks good; yes, TV can be an art, so that works. You are not late either.

Graffiti is an illegal behavior, and it should be censor.

Zhou: good
