Art: Navigators/Pathfinders

Overview  

Romanticism Art Period

Each week we will be focusing on a different art period within this semester’s history timeline. We will be looking at the characteristics, style, and features as we analyze and critic different works from that art period.

Today we learned the three basic steps to critiquing a piece of art, which we will continue to apply throughout the semester:

A: ANALYZE the main objects/subjects

R: RECOGNIZE the colors, shapes, lines, textures, etc
T: TRANSLATE the meaning/emotion

 Project

Applying the three ART steps of critiquing, students found and cut out words from magazines to describe the various paintings shown. These words were then used in our group project, a Subway Style Word Art Poster.
