Sorry this is really rough...I am going to have to work on it more after class.
I am having trouble finding sources that talk about different functions of Guernica, other than as an anti-war sentiment....so I was trying to find sources that talk about art in general.
Argument Source 1: "Abstractions in art with implications for perception"
by Robert Zimmer
He talks about the purpose of art and how there is this "two-way effect" of how artworks are creations and yet we are also created by artwork.
Evidence 1: "Picasso's 'Guernica' in Its Historical Context"
by Werner Hofmann
This will help me get some background information on the bombing of Guernica/ what motivated
Picasso to make the painting.
Evidence 2: http://records.viu.ca/~lanes/english/hemngway/picasso/guernica.htm
Image itself
Evidence 3: http://www.isreview.org/issues/52/guernica.shtml
Picasso describes art as being "an instrument of war for attack and defense against the enemy."
Evidence 4: http://www.pbs.org/treasuresoftheworld/guernica/glevel_1/5_meaning.html
Picasso talks about the painting's anti-war sentiment and talks about the symbolic meaning of the bull/ other images in the mural.
