Egon Schiele: Old Houses in Krumau, 1914
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

Have students brainstorm a list of adjectives to describe places. As a group, look at Schiele's Old Houses in Krumau and then, working with a partner, to match words from the list with Schiele's scene. Have students reflect on process--how they know when an artwork is finished. Ask students about the use of anthropomorphic elements in Schiele's work and their own. Have students consider the terms looking and seeing and how the two differ. Students will produce an anthropomorphic landscape from their surroundings and write down similes and metaphors comparing parts of the landscape to the human form. Students will also work together to produce a series of images inspired by each other. Students will also work with the definition of "artists".

Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

Students will look at Egon Schiele's "Seated Couple, 1915" and compare the two figures. Students will discuss how art can express feelings symbolically.

After a class discussion on allegory, students will create their own allegorical drawing. Students will then write a poem based on one of the works. Also, working in pairs, students will sketch each other twice making use of perspective to portray different aspects of the subject.

Ekphrastic Poetry—A Unit for a Creative Writing Seminar
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

“Ekphrasis” is an obscure word for a common phenomenon: the impulse of artists of various media to compose creative responses to other artists’ work. In Greek, the word translates roughly into “description,” and “ekphrastic writing” is often defined as writing that describes an artistic product. However, description is only one among many elements in a successful piece of ekphrastic writing. What follows is an outline for a three-day unit in a creative writing class, designed to introduce students to the writing of ekphrastic poetry. The final assignment requires students to apply their knowledge of ekphrastic writing to works within the Washington and Lee collection. The course could easily be adjusted to cover ekphrastic prose, with an altered set of readings.

Exploring Photographs, Lesson 2: A Closer Look--Analysis in the Museum

This lesson contains three activities. Each activity uses a different object to explore one method of analysis and emphasize concentrated looking. When using non-photographic images, emphasize that the tools students are learning can be used to analyze any work of art from any time period, including photographs. This activity is an engaging way to help students create rich, descriptive sentences. Learning to write these sentences will be helpful when students create their own artist's statements in later lessons.

Exploring Your Background and Identity
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students explore how photography can illuminate aspects of their identity, including cultural backgrounds, family histories, engagement in societal groups, personal privilege, and the points of intersectionality between those. To start this exploration, your students will consider the idea of self-portraiture and the depth of information (or misinformation) that photography can express, by analyzing others’ self-portraits. Following a discussion of the factors that shape background and identity, students then begin to consider their own identities. Students create their own digital self-portraits pulling from ideas around personal background and identity to take the popular digital photography format to another level. In the final reflection, students connect their own identities to the idea of the self, and to the self-portrait, as they begin to consider the changes they would like to see in their world.

Face Your Face

Rating
0.0 stars

In this project, students explore the use of masks in various world cultures, learning about the origins, purpose, and use of masks in rituals, performances, fashion, occupations, etc. They consider how masks function as objects to enhance beauty and appearance, provide protection or concealment, display power, or indicate change and transformation.

Students use what they learn about masks to inform a reflection on the ways that they “wear masks” in their own lives, and the different “faces” they put on for themselves and others. They create a mask that artistically represents one of these faces and present it as part of a collaborative exhibition.
