Answer 1

There are a few blights that affect artichoke. This photo, alone, will not be enough to identify the exact pest. It does look like a fungal infection. This is usually due to wet, or heavy soils that do not have a chance to dry out between waterings.

As long as very little of the plant is showing symptoms, you may be able to save it. You will need a fungicide.

Here are some articles that will help:
