ARTIST: PEDRO REYES
LOCATION: MEXICO CITY An artist combining technology, art, and music Artwork titled: Disarm: A Mechanized Orchestra of Instruments Built from Decommissioned Weapons I found this artist on the website: Colossal. Monday Drawing Lab is on Monday; you will be presented with a sketchbook challenge. For homework due Friday, enlarge a portion of your Monday design and use it to inspire a new artwork in the box. Put Friday's date. Put a bookmark in your sketchbook. Use unique and creative materials. Full all white paper in the small box! Artist: Anthony Howe Location: USA, Washington (state) Enjoy this artist who makes amazing kinetic sculptures from stainless steel. (from my favorite art website: Colossal!) Mrs. Taylor has asked us to design cardboard sculptures to display at the Homecoming Dance! Each of you will create a 3-dimensional cardboard structure inspired by Art Nouveau design elements. Complete the handout to understand the difference between Art Deco and Art Nouveau designs, then draw and design 5 design possibilities for your sculpture on the same handout. Good luck!
COMPUTER LAB WORK: SEPTEMBER 17, 2013 We will be creating our first large cardboard sculptures with the inspiration of Art Nouveau. But first, I want you to recognize the difference between Art Deco and Art Nouveau on your own: 1. Copy down the definitions for Art Deco and Art Nouveau. ART DECO (art de-ko): decorative art style of the 1920s and 1930s, characterized by precise and bold geometric shapes and strong colors ART NOUVEAU (art new-voh): a style of decorative art rom about 1890 until World War 1, characterized by intricate line designs and flowing curves based on natural forms like plants and flowers and elaborate organic shapes. 2. Below are two buildings. One building has characteristics of the Art Deco style and the other building has characteristics of the Art Nouveau style. Which one is which? 3. Now look at two designs. Which looks like it could be Art Deco and which looks like Art Nouveau? 4. Now look at two wallpaper samples. Which wallpaper (a repeating motif on paper) looks like Art Deco and which appears to be Art Nouveau? 5. Now, on your handout...please do a google search. Type in "google.com/images" and search for "ART NOUVEAU DESIGNS" or "ART NOVEAU WALLPAPER" or just "ART NOUVEAU". Find images you really like. Then, sketch them in the 5 boxes. They will be elaborate, so please do your best to capture the detail for your reference in the classroom.
This week we complete this Artist of the Week handout about Frederick McSwain on Colossal. http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2011/05/a-portrait-of-tobias-wong-using-13138-dice/ We will talk a lot about the principles during our sculpture projects. Student Assignment: Look at the definition and image examples on the Principles of Design handout and create miniature collages featuring your own versions and visual definitions for each of the principles. This company invented a pen that "draws" in 3-D! Check it out at Colossal, my favorite website to learn about new artists.
Our sketchbooks will also be called PROCESS JOURNALS. In these handmade books you will record notes, document the start to finish of each sculpture project, and use them to complete drawing assignments and homework assignments. |
