A-level Art key vocabulary on Style for analysis of Art -H Wolfflin: 5 theories to interpret form

(0)
German Art Historian, Heinrich Wolfflin in his “PRINCIPLES OF ART” (1915) isolated five opposing factors which he defined as the difference between High Renaissance and the Baroque style. This can further relate to the contrasts in MODERN ART MOVEMENTS There are the 5 main ways of interpreting forms with examples of the work of Heinrich Wolfflin that is: 1. painterly, linear, 2. closed, open, 3. planes and recession, 4. multiplicity, unity, 5. clearness and unclearness. Wolfflin supports a theory on ways of analysing a painting and examples of style which he formulated between the Renaissance and Baroque style and this gives a good interpretation of the differences in ways of depicting a subject. In the slide presentation examples are chosen to show the differences in style and hopefully students begin to understand the terminology used and begin to look at the ways different works are composed. The styles of Wolfflin also link to modern art movements like for example, painterly characterizes the work of Pierre Bonnard, Francis Bacon, Paul Gauguin, Vincent Van Gogh, Rembrandt or Renoir. Linear characterizes the work of Vermeer or Ingres. The Impressionists and the Abstract Expressionists tended strongly to be "painterly”, while movements such as Pop Art or photo-realism emphasize flatness and could be referred to more as linear. This also helps A-level students find their particular strengths and to make them reflect on what particular style they enjoy doing in their own work and gives them an excellent sense of vocabulary to use when analysing artworks and gives them an understanding of using art vocabulary when critically analysing their own and artist’s work. Students after reviewing the following slides on Wolfflin’s theory and discussing what the differences are in style begin to formulate their own essay on style using 2 artworks of your choice. TASK: Write an essay on two different artworks and analyse the composition and structure of the artwork in relation to the theories of style of Wolfflin. Begin to not only discuss the visual appearance of the subjects but try to relate this to the influences and background of the particular artists you choose.

To develop an understanding of the work of Joan Miro by looking at the example ‘The Harlequin Carnival’ and describing what you see. To draw out a cupcake consolidating what you learnt in class in pencil. To make a magical creature out of a splash of coffee. To trace this and to colour this in as best you can. To then paste your magical creature on the cupcake drawing and to creatively colour this in. To evaluate your outcome. To take a photograph of your sheet of A4 paper and to upload this to the Shared drive X. Task 1 Write for a Heading ‘Surrealism’ on A4 paper Look at the picture by Joan Miro on the right called: ‘ The Harlequin’s Carnival’. This is a typical Surrealist picture. Describe this work on the paper, describe what you see in one sentence. Write 2 or 3 lines on your paper about this painting using descriptive words. Task 2 On the piece of A4 paper carefully draw a cup cake. Size about the normal size of a cake place this at the bottom of the A4 paper Follow the steps on this slide to help you to draw one cupcake. Draw this lightly with pencil like the examples given on the right. Task 3 Make a very little coffee, some black coffee in a cup. Wait for this to cool before using this. (You can make the coffee by putting half a cup of water and mix a spoon of coffee with this.) Splash strong cold coffee on another piece of paper – ( not the drawing paper of cupcake) When the coffee splash is dry draw in and around this splash in pencil and make a fantasy random magical creature like the examples on this slide and the next three slides Task 4 Once you have your coffee splash and have drawn around this. Try to copy this out again, that is, put a piece of white paper over the splash you can use your window light to help you trace it Colour the tracing in. Task 5 Cut this out. You have now made a magical creature! You could outline this darkly with your pencil. This is the style of Joan Miro –who uses flat shapes. You now need to colour in with flat colour shapes (that is, no shading!) . See examples. You can use pencil crayons and felt tips if you have. If you do not have this just use your pencil to colour this in. Paste this on your cupcake Decorate your cupcake creatively with magical creatures. Task 6 Creatively finish colouring in your cupcake as best you can. You can collage – stick coloured papers and decorate. Paste this on your A4 sheet with task 1. Complete a short evaluation.

This is a very successful drawing lesson to build confidence with drawing. It can be used at any level as skills are on invaluable. It can be stretched over two lessons. I have a shoe box of little ornaments wrapped in fabric and tied up with tape that I use for this lesson and over the years this is one of my favourite lessons. I finally tried to make a powerpoint and hope you enjoy ! There is a drawing starter exercise Then the fun begins Objectives To explore observational drawing techniques: blind drawing and contour drawing To investigate how to capture techniques (markmaking) when drawing To build confidence in capturing a form with line by using different styles when drawing: gestural drawing and pattern drawing To develop a design from observational details There are 17 drawings to make … and each slide gives you the instruction and an example of drawing Resources A3 cartridge sharp 2B pencil small objects to draw wrapped to start oil pastel each Fine-liner each ruler pencil rayons small bit of tracing paper cut in squares ( size of unit for repeat) starting with the following . TOUCH DRAWING Draw through TOUCH ONLY Feel the object under a cloth draw the object – and try to imagine the shape, texture, and form Try to draw and outline only. 2 minutes BLIND DRAWING Draw with CONTINUOUS LINE and BLINDLY 3 min Draw the object and draw blindly. DO NOT LOOK AT YOUR PAPER as you draw. Instead imagine your pencil as a contour ( an ant crawling on the object) exploring all the edges, outlines, shapes, textures and details of the object. 2 minutes… Follow the slides There are pictures of student examples. Success criteria The line and markmaking quality is MORE important than accuracy This gives students a realisation that drawing is about lines and marks.

John Berger 'Ways of Seeing' for A-level Art students. Image or Relic or photo. Naked or Nude

(0)
Looking at briefly two chapters of the famous John Berger book ’ Ways of Seeing’ It is difficult to summarise a book of such a wealth of knowledge and such a clever way of phrasing ideas. The slide presentation gives one a sketch of two chapters. Chapter one which discusses the image versus the photo, seeing versus words and there are a few quotes from John Berger but also the link to the You tube clips. This is a good A-level presentation and then to get the students to listen to the first two chapters on video clip. Students need to question how an image has lost its meaning through the advent of the camera and begin to draw a comparison of images before the camera and after the camera. Students should also look at how the way we have reproduced the female form through the ages from Antiquity to the 21st Century and think about the meaning of what it is to be nude and what it is to be naked. John Berger has a lot of ideas on this and there are lots of phrases from his book discussing this concept and showing some examples of this in some major artworks. One can never make justice of this incredible book but the slide show does allow for discussion in the class on important concepts and understandings we have of images in our time.

A KS3 ART still-life project: various different techniques, composition, rule of third, art styles

(0)
A detailed project looking at developing a Still-life project looking at composition, rule of thirds, different techniques for each object with different art styles. Students firstly, study what is a Still-life and write up a definition for this. Students then look at what different styles in Art before Modern Art. Students look in detail at Dutch Still life and the Vanitas still-life. There is also some information on the Post Impressionist artist Paul Cezanne and his style of brushwork. A focus on what is still life?, then looking at Pop Art and what is pop Art? Students then answer questions on two Pop Artists: Michael Craig Martin and Patrick Caulfield. Students practise making a background on Pop Art in their sketchbook and answer the questions. Students develop their own Still-life and are told to bring in objects for their Surreal mixed media Still-life and their are examples of this. Students learn to compose a layout for their still-life final using a Viewfinder and the rules of third, Fibonnacci rule to help them construct a composition. Students develop their own Still-life and are told to bring in objects for their final arrangement. The emphasis is then to take them through different techniques with each object they brought to class. The techniques included in the project are: Wax and Scratch, Paper collage, Pop Art hard edge colours and outlines, Palette knife painting, Pencil shading and Pen drawing. There are finally student examples of final outcomes for this project to support the outcome.
