a piece of ART is the visual expression of an idea or experience

Art is COMMUNICATION Guernica Pablo Picasso 1937 137.4 x 305.5 in. In Madrid. Commissioned by Spanish Government for the World’s Fair in Paris 1937 Guernica Pablo Picasso 1937 Depicts the Bombing of Spain by Nazi Germany during the Spanish Civil War

Before you can truly experience art you must first learn to Perceive . This means using your senses to analyze and interpret a piece of artwork in order to understand it. Just to look at something means you can recognize it as a car or a chair. To find the details in an object you have to spend time looking at it… sometimes touching it… sometimes listening to it (The Guitar). Can you remember the first time you saw an instrument? A video game? Someone doing a new style of dance… you were intrigued and wanted to look longer and study it. In this class I want you to look at things like it’s the first time you have seen them. Don’t take a still life or object for granted. Study every detail. Perception is to truly SEEING what the art is Communicating.

Why Do artists create Art?

The Purpose or Functions of Art Personal Function: The artist tries to express his or her personal feelings through the artwork. Social Function: Art that conveys a sense of family, community, or civilization. Cultural. Spiritual Function: An artist may create a work to support the Religious or Spiritual beliefs of a culture. Physical Function: Functional Art: objects use in everyday life— such as architecture, jewelry, pottery, furniture, etc. Educational Function: Art that has been used throughout time as a way to pass on historical facts. Teaches about cultures.

Where do the Ideas come from? Ask class where they think ideas come from? Answers should vary…Books, Imagination, Stories, Myths, Legends, People (culture), Events (historical), Nature (environment), Movies, Spiritual Beliefs, etc.

Inspiration comes from natural materials found in the environment

The Language of Art Elements of Design Principles of Design Line The rules that govern how artists organize the Elements of Design into an art work. The basic Visual symbols of art.

3 Components of an Art Work Subject: The image viewers can easily identify in a work of art. Non-Objective Art has no recognizable subject matter. Composition: The way the Principles of Design are used to organize the Elements of Design Content: The message the work communicates.

4 Steps to Critiquing Art 1. Describe Describe what you see. What is the Subject? Do you know what medium (material) is used to make the piece. What is visually in the work? 2. Analyze How is the work organized? Describe the composition in terms of the Elements and Principles of Design. 3. Interpret What is the artist trying to communicate? What is the content of the piece? Guess the meaning. 4. Judge What do you think of the work? Think objectively. Is the piece successful in communicating the ideas of the artist?
