Fine art analyses is based on discourse analysis method in contemporary art analysis context. It is an analytical process of deconstructing and critiquing visual language and the social context of the artwork. Basically the artwork is discussed in a text from several different point of views. Fine art analysis is interpretative, so do not be afraid of interpret artworks from your point of view, personal history always affects to interpretation and it makes the more interesting



The definition of discourse is a discussion about a topic either in writing or face to face. An example of discourse is a teacher meeting with a student to discuss an artwork.





Discourse analysis is the study of social life, understood through analysis of language in its widest sense (including face-to-face talk, non-verbal interaction, images, symbols and documents). It offers ways of investigating meaning, whether in conversation or in culture.



Discourse analysis assumes that there are multiple constructed realities and that the goal of researchers working within this perspective is to understand the interplay between visual language and the given social context.



The four traditional modes of discourse are narration, description, exposition, and argument.



Discourse analysis aims to perceive and categorize various meaning-making processes, networks and practices from the artwork and its context. Discourse analysis, which focuses on the production, new achievement(s) and negotiations of meanings from the point of view of people in conversation and power and empowerment in the society, is critical discourse analysis. By using Discourse Analysis as a method of analyzing an artwork you'd be promoting yourself as a "critical consumer of information". You also always define the context, the scene, where you discuss the artwork.
