Richard Misrach

Dean Mosier and I are going to write our paper on Richard Misrach.  We have done some research to this point and have found scholarly articles online that discuss his work and his biography. Of course we plan to do more and search for books sources.

One source we found is this: Deborah Bright, "The Machine in the Garden Revisited: American Environmentalism and Photographic Aesthetics," Art Journal 51, no. 2 (1992): 60-71, accessed October 14, 2012, http://www.jstor.org/stable/777397

  1. Hi Sarah,
    Misrach is a great choice and the article you found definitely counts as a scholarly source. FYI re: the bibliographic entry...you do not need to include the JSTOR url or the accessed date for a source like that. When you access an article via JSTOR you can rest assured that it is a legitimate scholarly source and what you see when you open the pdf is a scan from a printed journal, not a web-based article, so you don't need the extra web info. Just cite it like a regular printed article, as in my guidelines.

  4. This citation is still not formatted correctly. Please look again at the guidelines and resubmit. Spaces, punctuation, and italicization are all important elements when you write a bibliography.

  5. So I realize that Art Journal is suppose to be italicized and the weird spacing shouldn't be there but for some reason my computer won't let me fix those things in a comment.

  6. I've noticed the italics problem in comments, too, so don't worry about that. But if you look at my examples of citations you'll see that the author's last name needs to go first and you need to change a couple of commas into periods. Just make sure you fix that when you go to write the bibliography for your paper.
