AGENDA 2/17 Notes on Movement – Actual & Implied Continue work on Rhythm project

MOVEMENT Movement is the design principle that operates in the fourth dimension - time. Movement is the process of the relocation of objects in space over time.

ACTUAL MOVEMENT Artwork that incorporates actual movement is called kinetic. Kinetic artwork can move through: 1. natural properties (like wind) 2. mechanically/technologically driven 3. the artist or viewer can move it

Fiesta Kinetic Sculpture, David C. Roy

IMPLIED MOVEMENT Movement can be suggested visually in different ways: Line Usage Repetition / Multiplication The Decisive Moment/ Kinetic Moment Blurred outlines and fast shapes

Unique Forms of Continuity in Space, Umberto Boccioni, 1913

BW 2/23 What is the difference between Rhythm and Movement?

AGENDA 2/23 1. Slideshow & Notes on Futurism 2. Work on Final Movement artwork 1. Last class day to work on both projects is FRIDAY

FUTURISM In the early 1900s, a group of young and rebellious Italian writers and artists rejected their cultural traditions and celebrated industrialization. They called for the destruction of museums & libraries Umberto Boccioni, Materia, 1912

FUTURISM & CHRONOPHOTOGRAPHY They were influenced by chronophotographic (time-based) studies depicted the mechanics of animal and human movement. Giacomo Balla, Dynamism of a Dog on a Leash, 1912

ÉTIENNE JULES MAREY - L' HOMME MACHINE

DYNAMISM Captivated by the idea of the “dynamic,” the Futurists sought to represent an object’s sensations, rhythms and movements in their images, poems and manifestos. Umberto Boccioni, Unique Forms of Continuity in Space,1913

BW 2/25 Write the question & answer. What aspects of Modern Life did the Futurists think were beautiful and seek to capture in their work?

AGENDA 2/25 Review Project Objectives Continue work on Movement Monday due date – need to photograph your pieces together during Monday’s class (or after school) so that we can critique on Tuesday

RHYTHM OBJECTIVES 1. Demonstrates Rhythm – means elements repeat or “move” across the page 2. Identifiable form of Rhythm 3. Completed artwork – there aren’t large blank/white areas

MOVEMENT OBJECTIVES 1. Demonstrates Action / Motion 2. Identifiable Method of Implied Movement 1. Multiplicity 2. The Decisive / Kinetic Moment 3. Blurry & Fast Shapes 3. Finished Artwork – no large blank, white areas of paper

CRITIQUE OBJECTIVES Professional looking Photograph of both pieces (together) This needs to be taken and submitted to me BEFORE Tuesday’s class period so that we can critique that day Your critique grade will be for 50% if I have not received your photograph before Tuesday’s class period Provide appropriate, polite feedback during Critique of other people Speak 3 times
