extended essay
What makes art valuable?
Write a 300-word essay on what actually makes a piece of art (a film, a book, a song, a painting) valuable — beyond 'it's good' or 'people like it'. Use one specific work you know well as evidence.
Target: 300 words · about 25 minutes
Show checklist
- Pick ONE work — don't list five
- Define 'valuable' early — money, meaning, influence?
- Use specific moments from the work, not summary
- Push past 'because it makes you feel something'
- End on a claim, not a question
