Today's Class- Tonight we critiqued the color temperature season collages, considering whether or not the colors in each season matched the declared intention. Then we began a new graded project, a mixed media collage partly inspired by the Dada movement of the early 20th century. Students saw a few examples of collages from art history and of student examples of the project from earlier semesters. Then each student drew random words (a noun and a modifying word or phrase) out of paper bags, with the resulting phrase to become the subject of a mixed media collage. (the above collage is based on the phrase "City of Zoo")How to make this up- To learn all the details and requirements of the project (including how to get your subject phrases), and to see additional student examples, click here.
Homework- This mixed media collage project is due at the beginning of class on December 9, 2010.
The specific color palates project begun in class last week is due at the beginning of class on December 2, 2010.
Anyone who still owes me a wood block or the color temperature project should bring them to class as soon as possible.
For next class 11/23/10- That's right, our next class meeting is on Tuesday, November 23rd, at 6:30 pm. We will complete a new portfolio exercise involving painting. Bring your 18"x 24" pad, pencil and eraser, and all your painting materials.
