Project
·
Objective is to develop autonomy in their exploration and

of art vocabulary and develop critical thinking in an arts context
·
Materials required: Computers for each student (or in pairs
if resources are limited) with internet access
·
Materials required for homework: Computer with internet to
complete any unfinished work and to upload their critiques on the class’ blog
60 minute work
period to work on their assignment
·
Students will find their chosen
artist’s collection and view the work in both
o
“Museum view”: to analyze their placement
within the museum in terms of sub-collections or coloration etc.
o
“Slideshow
view”: to compare the works individually and as a part of the artists’ whole
collection of works
·
From this exploration Students will
prepare a critique of one work and its specific elements as well as a critique
of the artists’ style, situating the selected work within a larger context
(meaning the entire body of work, relevant art movement[s] of the time, the
artist’s lifetime etc.)
·
The individual critiques will then be
uploaded to a blog (created by the teacher on Blogger) to feature the class’
“gallery” of critiques in a collaborative online forum to compare, contrast, and comment upon their peers’
critiques
HOMEWORK: Complete any unfinished work and upload their
critiques on the class blog
