One of the BIGGEST CHALLENGES I see with 8th graders and your understanding of what art is and what it can be is that you don not have a wide view of the world of the arts. The IMAGE, the PICTURE has to be something and it has to be correct (in many of the 8th graders eyes) and sometimes it can be and should be about the mark making… the act of making art. Sol Le Witt nailed this!

6th Grade: Printmaking
Keepsake boxes and the final few days… what are your ideas for the surface decoration and embellishment.
How are we able to use these ideas in NEW ways… I wish I knew who did this because it is a REALLY great approach to talking the neurographic breakdown of the contours in another direction!
We in the Korb household hope you are having a GREAT time as the 4th quarter is just around the corner. All our best as we enjoy our nation’s capitol.
Here are some MORE of the images of me and my family as we enjoy and learn and experience and WALK DC.

6th Grade: CERAMICS and KEEPSAKE Boxes
What can you KEEP SAFE in a KEEPSAKE BOX? This is an example of a two part ceramic drawing by Derek from the Great Pottery Throwdown. His KEEPSAKE BOX fits inside the larger TV sculpture and holds a TIE that was his dad’s.
Art has no boundaries except those imposed by the needs of the maker. Boundaries are a form of definition, nothing more. They are a way to create a hierarchy of concerns, interests and priorities. Boundaries change all the time. That is part of what art does. By defining an area of interest or by stating a new priority, art allows us to create new definitions of ourselves and the context in which we operate. To blur a boundary is to confuse the definition. To move a boundary is to make a new definition. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School
Drawing: German Expressionism and WORK!

“And even if you don’t succeed… there is NOTHING wrong with failure (just get back and try again – and again – and again…).” – Frank Korb
Studio Art 360: Glazing Pottery

1.1 Ad: Visualize and hypothesize to generate plans for ideas and directions for creating art and design that can affect social change.
Art and Fear had a lot to offer. Open the book and look through the chapters… What chapter do you feel you MIGHT relate to you the most Based SOLELY on the title of the chapter (may not be fair) – and WHY?

AP Studio Art: Concentration – CRIT DAY!

What is something that you took away from the 2 minute critique today – whether it be about YOUR work or about another person’s work.
Beginning on the FIRST set of 3 works… What is the CENTRAL IDEA behind your concentration? Remember that you need to have a common thread / common theme / CENTRAL IDEA that ties your works together. Work on THIS with me – let’s explore our ideas!
ASSIGNMENT PART 2: 3 concentration works. DUE NOVEMBER 21.
#28: An idea is only as good as its execution. It is important that you master your medium. Poorly made work will either ruin a good idea or make the lamentable execution itself the subject. Overly finessed technique can mask a lack of content or can smother an image. At the same time, roughness and imprecision has its place in rendering. One can only gauge the need to throw technique away if one has first achieved the mastery of it. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School
IF YOU ARE MIISSING WORK! This is a GENTLE REMINDER to GET YOUR WORK COMPLETED by WEDNESDAY for a GRADE IN THE FIRST QUARTER! If it is not IN BY 3:00 Wednesday – it is a ZERO in the GRADEBOOK!

#13 Each generation gets to reinvent art in its own image. Because art is an act of description, it is inevitable that what it describes will reflect every generation’s bias of the moment. It is not a strict reflection of a time but an interpretation rendered in a language that is always in a state of transformation. Kit White 101 Things I Learned in Art School
As we are now halfway through the semester, please reflect on the skills, techniques, or tools in your art toolbox that you did not necessarily come into this studio art course with but have since developed anew, or at the least gotten a better grasp or understanding of. Please take a few minutes and write out your new skills and where you remember developing them as the quarter progressed. (Projects, discussions, feedback, reflections… be specific and write complete sentences.) Use the space to the right for more room
