The (Hu)manifest Project

1. Just as the artists whose work you have seen responded to their world, you will create your own ideas, or manifesto, that represent your personal response to some aspect of the contemporary world.

2. You may choose to comment on any aspect of the world today, including war, violence, technology, industry, politics, human relations, family, education, or government.

3. Your manifesto's tone may be hopeful, admiring, critical, ambivalent, or simply observational.


In addition to the manifestos we will be reading and discussing in class, you may find a helpful and practical guide to writing a manifesto here.

Also, be sure to look at the links section on this blog and open "manifestos" to see even more.
