Write a research paper about Laurie Anderson, during 2005 – present .

The choreographer Twyla Tharp (2003) advocates an “archeological” approach to understanding the work of
artists and performers by closely examining their personal and artistic development across a career.i We will be
following Tharp’s advice for our research projects. I have identified several people with significant, long and
influential careers in performance across a number of genres: 1) Laurie Anderson; 2) David Bowie; 3) Bill T.
Jones; and 4) Isabella Rosellini. We will be looking at these artists’ aesthetic performance work as well as their
public performances of themselves.

I. A background and overview of the artist based on research you did (be sure to refer to and properly cite
books by/about artist as well print and video interviews, etc.)
II. A description of how the artist’s performance functions as constitutive, epistemic, and/or critical during
the period you researched
III. An in-depth analysis of one or more specific performances by the artist (aesthetic and/or personal) to
support the above claims. Use other terms and concepts from class as appropriate.

Analyze the Effectiveness of Organizational Mission Statements.

Conduct an internet search to find the publicly posted mission statements for two organizations you admire. These organizations do not have to be for-profit business organizations, though at least one of the choices should be such a commercial business. When selecting mission statements, consider whether those statements consider diversity in its many forms to adapt to modern business environments. Make your own assessment of whether what an organization states, no matter what they call it, fits the definitions of a mission statement as discussed in the Books and Resources provided below. Prepare a written report that contains the following in this specific order:1. Clearly introduce the purpose of your report, and then explain how you will structure ideas throughout your paper.2. Discuss the meaning of the term mission statement using the Books and Resources provided below. Based on what the mission statements communicate to you, explore their effectiveness in supporting diverse workforces working in different environments.3. Be sure to document the mission statement of each selected organization. Investigate whether each mission statement is effective in allowing the organization to adapt and evolve in today’s diverse and ever-changing society and business environment. If society or their business environments change, will their mission statement help or hinder their ability to adapt to those changes? What would you do as a manager leading a team of employees in that organization? Would the statement be effective in helping you make decisions? Why or why not? What changes might you suggest the firms make to their mission statements?Provide a conclusion to your paper with brief concluding remarks about the results of your analysis.Support your assignment with the items in the Books and Resources provided below.
