How do I choose an art topic?
Always choose a topic that you are interested in. It will be much easier and much more fun for you and your reader. Avoid broad topics (e.g. Art during war times), or narrow ones (e.g. Post World War II art of 1945 showing the gueules cassées). A better topic might be: The Atrocities of post World War II in art. The most common subjects of art include people (portraiture), arrangements of objects (still-life), the natural world (landscape), and abstractions (non-objective). Historically, the five main fine arts were painting, sculpture, architecture, music, and poetry, with performing arts including theatre and dance. It’s what the story is about. But if you want to take it further, you could also state the theme as a more complex and specific question about that topic.
