There are several databases from which to choose when you are seeking secondary sources. For this assignment, most of you will want to start your search by looking at Art Full Text or a newspaper database (for items like exhibition reviews and commentary on the artist/work) or Arts & Humanities Database (scholarly work in art and cultural studies, among other areas). Always make sure that you've selected the most appropriate database to search!
News Databases:
