Artworks of the Week
Jeanne Minnix Sketchbook More Scared Than Me
When I check evidence on Thursday, March 24, I will assess both the artwork from last week and the one for this week. Hope everyone is enjoying their (short) bit of time!
Postmodern Family Tree
What is postmodernism? Well, I could be here all day explaining it. I encourage you to do your own research. Some of the concepts attached to it include art as a reflection of cultural conditions, in our case, the family. In addition, there is some eclecticism, meaning that we're borrowing from a lot of different sources, and we're transforming through recycling. Also, there's visual conflict, and multiple ways to read the artwork. What does that mean? It means that in the interpretation of your work, you might see one thing, and I might see another--AND THAT'S OKAY! (Many of these ideas come from Arthur Elfland's Postmodern Art Education: An Approach to Curriculum)
So, to start out, in your sketchbook, you're going to create a chart, of sorts. You can use codes, symbols, or the actual names of people you're going to represent. This activity/preparation might take one page, or it might take several.
For each person, you are going to "assign" elements of art specific to the qualities of that person. Give each person a color, shape/form, line, and texture. If you can squeeze in the last two, value and space, go for it. But definitely use the first four.
Kiln Drama
Unloading the kiln yesterday, I had to clean up a couple of explosions. There is one more shelf of broken ware that I didn't photograph. What are a couple of the reasons that these explosions might have occurred?
