Modern movement short 5 min Scheme of work template No 1: Styles project using cupcake as object

Art Modern Movements 9 powerpoints full project using Cupcakes

Students make a cupcake in each of the modern movement styles and make a cake stand at the end of the project. This is a set of powerpoints for each movern movement, Surrealism, Cubism, Expressionism, Neo-impressionism, Fauvism and Realism. It is a set of 8 lessons and then there is the Scheme of Work for the project. For each of the movements students learn a different technique: Surrealism- Splash Chance watercolour imaginary creature out of this to add to cupcake. Cubism - geometrical shapes to shade light to dark to create angular cupcake over a collage made of newspaper. Realism - Tonal realistic shading to capture 3D form. Expressionism-Black and white polyprint to capture the agitated marks of artists. Neo-Impressionism - using a stippling technique with paintbrush to capture fine mark-making. Fauvism- random use of arbitrary colour to capture the bright spontaneity of paint marks. At the end of the project students then choose a party theme and independently decorate their party plate with the cupcakes on this.
