October 1, 2013 • Finish up our “Critique” • Movement: Mark, Rodrigo, Jovanni • Unity: Jesus, Eduardo, Carlos • Breadth #5: Intro • Begin collage if time (no glue today) • Homework: Completing/returning any missing assignments B1-B4 (thumbnails, drafts, finished work etc)
Smashed Self Portrait • What you’re learning: • Drawing techniques (graphing for proportion, values, shading, realism) • Composition (how you set up your page) • About Pablo Picasso & Cubism • Creating a sense of discomfort and “unease” with imagery (engage the viewer/artist voice) • Practice not being worried if you don’t look “pretty” if it means creating an emotion within your art.
1. Take your photos in 2-3 anglesOne will be a “smooshed” view
2. Cut apart and arrange your pictures in an interesting way. COMPOSITION!!!
3. Use a grid to graph the photo collage. Draw it square by square. You will NOT see the grid when you are done!!
Materials: Drawing pencils (Black, white, grey) • Want to use color? Convince me that there’s a reason! • Consider ACCENT COLORS only. Mixed with and shading like pencil. • Paper size will all be the same.
Pablo Picasso1881-1973“art consists of inventing & not copying” • Born in Spain • One of the major founders of “Cubism” • Created more than 22,000 works of art in his life time
Cubism style: • ‘Shattered’ or fragmented objects and shapes. Typically more geometric in shape. Imagine broken glass! 1908-1914
Sculpture & Collage(it’s said that Picasso was one of the first artists to use collage..)
Some more inspiration(Notice the similarities to the Multiple View Still Life…)
Unrelated but strange portrait photos:Creates “discomfort” “awkwardness” etc. • Doublefaced: Sebastian Bieniek Creates Unsettling Two-Faced Portraits with Makeup
Now: • Start cutting up your photographs, overlapping things…creating your collage • Tomorrow we will grid our collage and papers
Due Dates • Collage Due 10/2 • Grid done on 10/4 • 1st Submission 11/7 • This sounds like a lot of time but we will not be working on it in class that entire time. Only about 8-9 class periods. The rest is out of class. • 75% or more completed • Range of values • Accuracy (use of grid)
