Write a slide comparison essay for Yves Klein, Fire Painting, 1961–62 and Jackson Pollock, One: Number 31, 1950, 1950. Pick out the most salient connections between the two works and compose a thesis sentence that summarizes them. Your Interpretation of the Artistic Goals should always be one of these points of comparison because interpreting the work is the primary goal of doing the analysis. Your argumentation may draw on the form/style, content or context, but you do not have to discuss every one of these elements in your essay. Only include the points that are relevant to your argument. You may also consider the chronology of the works and how one work may influence or lead to a later work. A strong analysis will connect the works to the broader artistic and social context. In other words, you explain why a work looks the way it does or why the artists were interested in an approach because of a larger trend that existed.
