Yes, these videos relate to the art criticism project. When watching the videos I learned that it's important for me to critique the art and not the artists. My personal biases cannot be added into the critiquing either. Also, when viewing the exhibits you need to make sure that you understand what they are portraying and the point they are trying to make.

The films were very interesting. The videos gave a lot of insight on how to view exhibits, and also how to review them. I need to make sure that I am only reviewing the art, and not the artists.
