Week of Jan. 9th through 13th

This week we are diving into the realm of three dimensions. I have already mentioned to most classes our assignment for this week. Here it is, again, in detail----->

Found Object Sculpture
Objective- Students will create a free standing found object sculpture that 'looks' as if it is in motion.
Resources- student's own found objects. glue. glue sticks. glue gun, tape and/or adhesives students need.
Procedures- Found object sculptures are relatively new in the old realm of art. For the most part, early on, these type of sculptures were seen as 'junk art' or work that was pushed to the fringes of 'outsider art' or 'folk art'. Nonetheless found object sculptures, for the most part, do not have to be fully representational or 'naturalistic'. In fact, the more quirky something is the more endearing it seems to be. See the below examples.

     Of course, right click on the images to see and/or find the source for each artist. Most of these seem to be made out of metal. Ours does not have to be simplified to just that.
