AP Studio Art – Art and Fear – Let’s TALK about your Concentration!

Coming up next – Andy Goldsworthy.

Goals:

  • 2.2Ad: Demonstrate understanding of the importance of balancing freedom and responsibility in the use of images, materials, tools, and equipment in the creation and circulation of creative work.
  • What has been successful for your first concentration works? What has failed you? Where do you need to go from here?

What did you feel about the works you saw today? Is there anything you see about your work that you feel could be pushed a bit further? You are going outside tomorrow – bring a coat.

Advanced Drawing: Let’s LISTEN about the AP Concentrations!

Bryce Hudson – How does your work relate?

Goals:

  • 2.2Ad: Demonstrate understanding of the importance of balancing freedom and responsibility in the use of images, materials, tools, and equipment in the creation and circulation of creative work.
  • How did you enjoy using pastels for your first drawing? How about the knowledge that there was NO RECOGNIZABLE object to have to worry about.

What did you feel were some of the strengths of the works you saw today? What do you feel were some of the weaknesses?  Bryce Hudson

Drawing: DRAWING TIME! 

ANOTHER MORANDI to consider.

Goals:

  • 1.2Ac: Choose from a range of materials and methods of traditional and contemporary artistic practices to plan works of art and design.
  • How willing / capable are you to deal with CHANGE? Hmmm…. How are you defining the edges of forms DIFFERENTLY now than you have in the past?

Have you improved your drawings skills over the past few days? What do you feel you will be able to improve on regarding the skills you have currently? MORANDI: 

Studio Art 360: Let’s keep on the construction!

TONY SMITH at MoMA.

Goals:

  • 2.2P: Explain how traditional and non-traditional materials may impact human health and the environment and demonstrate safe handling of materials, tools, and equipment.
  • What can you use from the process we went through YESTERDAY to continue to create a CUBE, CYLINDER, and a pyramid? Do you want to work on ALL of them at the same time or are you going to finish one and then move onto the next?

What was the most difficult part of the building today for YOU? How can you use those challenges to develop your skills?
