創建您自己的現代藝術時代版本

In this class, students will create their own artworks inspired by master artists of the Modern Art era. Students will be challenged to use new knowledge, use new artistic approaches, and to broaden their skills in each project. 

The Modern Art era changed the course of artwork forever, and inspired much of the art world we know today. Awareness of the movement and master artists is beneficial for exploring one's own artistic voice. This class aims to expose students to more broad, in-depth views of the art world and its history, and to enrich students' skills, knowledge, and artistic ideas. Students will be challenged to try new techniques, and will ultimately strengthen skills and concepts over time. 

During each class, we will go over a new art topic that includes the background and history of each art style and artist. Students will then create a piece of their own inspired by the techniques, ideas, and mediums we are studying.

Please Note: This class will require a variety of art materials, such as acrylic paint, watercolors, and drawing pencils. Please view the materials list to plan accordingly. A weekly breakdown of class topics is included below:

Week one - Impressionism
Week two - Art Nouveau
Week three - Fauvism
Week four - Cubism
Week five - Surrealism
Week six - Abstract Art
Week seven - Pop Art
Week eight - Minimalism
Week nine - Conceptual Art
Week ten - Earth Art 
Week eleven - Realism
Week twelve - Neo Expressionism

Students will be challenged to connect these ideas and find their own meaning of these different forms of art, and how it speaks to them individually. The tools from this knowledge will encourage students to think more creatively, critically, and deeply about their artworks as a whole. For any students looking to pursue art as a serious hobby or career, education about these art movements is crucial and will benefit them in their artistic endeavors.
