Harvard Referencing task
Essay Question I have chosen:
Choosing a particular period from 1800 to present day, in what ways has art/design responded to the changing social and cultural forces of that period? ( at least 2 examples to support this )
In response to this, I have decided to write about 1960s-70s Psychedelic Art/ War art and how the peace movement was affected by events such as the Vietnam War, because I feel I know a lot about this subject.
