Prompts for LP 3: Studio Art HS

Artists: Francisco Goya, Ron English, Max Ernst, Duchamp
Movements: Dada, wheat paste, political uprising
Political Cartoons, miniatures, 3d printing, prepping for sculpture, paper mache, illustration

1. Political Poster or Cartoon:  create an original political cartoon.  I prefer this file to be a digital file in Flash or Adobe Animate so that we can edit and update together.  View several examples of political cartoons and posters.  Use text and format this piece in a traditional way.  Revise, edit, and don't avoid feedback.

2.  Mini Sculpture: use any materials that you would like to build a miniature sculpture.  I have polymer and will demonstrate the way to use it without wasting materials.  I will offer it, if you use it the way it is intended.  Feel free to order more through your EF-ask for Sculpey  I will also offer paper mache for those interested in set up and cleanup.  Use The Thinker as a model for your sculpture.  It should be small and tell a story at the same time.  Have fun -ask for feedback along the way.
3.  Design a cover for your phone:  Any kind will do but I like the 3d printed ones as a base.  You can bring your old one and paint over it or make a new one out of unique materials.  I will show everyone thingyverse so that we can all match specs with current designs.  I would like to see some sculptural ones that are non traditional and bigger. (like artsy ones that you can use but make a statement)

4.  DADA Photo/ video option:  explore the roots of the DADA movement and learn about Max Ernst and Duchamp.  Try to understand the origin of the movement and compare the chaos of the time to the chaos around us today.  React to the world around you in a way that a DADA artist might choose.  Use Photo and video to produce an original piece of art that is inspired by the DADA movement.

5.  Painting in the style of Ron English:  super sarcastic commentary about the material and social issues that surround us in POP culture.  Interpret several paintings with Mat and learn to paint a portrait that tells a story like English might.  Take a chance-design a narrative!
