FLEX Meet the Artist - North American Art History (12-15)
Emeliann Lonas
Average rating:5.0Number of reviews:(26)
In this 9-week Flex course, students will be introduced to North American art history by studying the lives and artwork of famous artists from the United States, Canada, Mexico.
Class experience
This course will explore eight North American artists, spanning time, place, and art styles to find a deeper understanding and appreciation for art history and art analysis. We will focus on one artist each week. Pear Deck lessons will provide background into the artist's life, both inside and outside of the art world, as well as history about the time period in which they lived, and the process(es) they undertook to make art. Students will then analyze a small collection of well-known and...
Students will know the individual lives of each artist explored, understanding their inspirations, influences, and defining experiences. Students will also understand how different art styles have developed and be able to apply the experiences of the artist and their own individual experiences and the elements and principles of art (taught each week in the context of that art style) in simple art analyses.
Homework Offered

All materials and instructions are provided on Monday or Wednesday, and activities can be completed digitally. Students may choose to print off note sheets or complete their mini-projects physically (upload a photo to the classroom for grading), but this is completely optional and up to the discretion of the student.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Google Drive and Canva are optional resources for students. They may find both resources helpful in their completion of the weekly mini-projects. Students will complete their weekly lessons through self-paced Pear Decks. Additional materials may include Youtube videos from museums or organizations; these are embedded into the Outschool browser. As we deep-dive into the lives of our artists, we will cover distressing or sensitive content (i.e. mental health issues, injuries, discrimination) that was prevalent in that artist's life. Content warnings will be provided for extremely sensitive topics, but a list of all subjects is available upon request before the start of class.
Material for this class comes from museum and gallery sources including The National Gallery, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
