Starting
Activity : Get a large sheet of paper (from the rolls near the entrance of the
room) and some charcoal from the classroom drawers, have the class work
together to create a mural like the roof of the Sistine Chapel with the subject
being important things in a college student's life. Limit this to about fifteen
minutes.
Next, browse
these images of art from this time period http://collections.vam.ac.uk/search/?listing_type=imagetext&offset=0&limit=15&narrow=1&extrasearch=&q=1500-1600&commit=Search&quality=0&objectnamesearch=&placesearch=&after=&after-adbc=AD&before=&before-adbc=AD&namesearch=&materialsearch=&mnsearch=&locationsearch=
talk with
the class about commonalities found in these artworks and talk about why art
was that way during the time. Ask if there are any elements of the 16th centuries art that the
students want to incorporate into their own art. Look for inspiration.
Next, talk
about the printing press, and its affect on art. It's role in the development
of a visual culture for the average person. Before printing, most average
people only say art that was in churches or somewhere else in the public eye.
The discovery of printing was as influential (if not more so) as the discovery
of the internet.
Artistic Prompt: Choose an art piece
from the 16th century,
either from your own research or from the link that will be emailed to you on
thursday, and create your own interpretation of it.
