Which article are you evaluating?
Lowbrow (art movement)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I am interested in lowbrow art style and I wanted to learn more about it. It is important because it is a visual contemporary art movement that I am not very familiar with and I would like to change that. My initial thoughts on lowbrow art is that I love how it looks overall. I also feel like it, in a way, reminds me of Maurice Sendak's "Where the Wild Things Are" illustrations and even Lisa Frank's art if it were a bit darker and the illustrations were given a creepy realistic look.

Evaluate the article
I think that the lead section is well written, short and sweet yet full of essential information that covers the basis of the lowbrow art movement. The sentence mentioning the humor of lowbrow art could possibly use a sentence before it that could better introduce that part, but if it isn’t added the sentence still holds valuable information. The content is relevant to the topic and cites some more recent sources, all being at least from the 2000s. The article remains neutral throughout. I'm not sure if the feelings of Robert Williams towards art institutions recognizing his type of art count as bias. the source links work and seem to be relevant and reliable. Everything is easy to read and visually appealing. I think that the article is overall very good, just maybe a little short. I don’t think that the addition of some details about more lowbrow artists, as well as pictures of their work would do any harm.
