MAY 17th, Group Project LAB day

Make some decisions today!
With your group or partner, take some of the first steps on your group project -
Designing an art history video game.
You only have 10 days left to complete this (I think...)...

You should start deciding the layout and STYLE of game.
You should decide WHAT WILL BE TAUGHT within the context of the game.
Maybe even come up with a character concept... If your game even HAS characters.


Read that handout.
This is no simple group project! Who will be making the visual aids? Will they be made on the computer or on posterboard?

TODAY is also a good time to do the first piece of research for your PAPER.
1) WHO will your artist be writing his/her letter TO?
2) WHAT specific piece of their work will be discussed?

My engine sort of blew up this weekend, and my Subaru is (hopefully) getting patched back together today... But I will be back tomorrow even if I have to -take the bus- yyeeeuccchhh....

ISM list

This will only help you if it makes sense to you.
Wikipedia definitions won't help if you don't understand them.

The terms you are responsible for this 6 weeks are all ART MOVEMENTS after the 19th Century.

You will be responsible for the artist's name and the MOVEMENT on the final test... Again, titles will be extra credit.

Keep in mind that some artists (arguably) belong to more than one movement, or maybe don't fit with the movement our text book suggests. We will spend some class time (especially during the review) classifying people.

BUT FIRST.
It will greatly help you if you understand what these movements were all about. Define these movements in terms you will understand. Read the definitions, do a google image search and look at examples of the work... How will you identify these movements to YOURSELF?

REMEMBER- you can only use notes taken on the backs of worksheets for this class!!!
