Discuss your own composition. What materials did you use? What was particularly enjoyable or difficult about this assignment? Are you satisfied with your composition?

Art question

This week’s discussion is going to have a creative twist inspired by a social media activity that began when the quarantine lockdowns began in 2020 and museums were forced to close to the public. It started with the Getty in Los Angeles, and was known as the #gettychallenge:

People chose paintings and recreated them in their homes using things that they had around them, often changing aspects of the artwork to fit the historical of a global pandemic:

Like this artwork by Frida Kahlo, where the exotic parrots were replaced with cleaning items (arguably a luxury item in the year 2020) They also used non-art materials to recreate artworks, like these: Edvard Munch’s The Scream replaced by various textiles and a lightbulb:

Initial Post:
• First, choose an artwork that fits in the Realist, Impressionist, Post-impressionist, or Symbolist periods. It should NOT be one of the artworks from the Learning Objectives pages, but feel free to use those artists.

• Next, choose your method of recreation. Are you going to photograph a physical recreation, or are you going to use non-art materials?

  •  1 do NOT want you to just try to paint a painting. This is about getting creative with the materials that you have around you!
  •  Begin your post by discussing the artwork from which you took inspiration. Explain the subject matter, style, and the period to which it belongs. What do you like, dislike, or find interesting about this period?

• Finally, discuss your own composition. What materials did you use? What was particularly enjoyable or difficult about this assignment? Are you satisfied with your composition?

• If you chose to make a composition using non-art materials: to ensure that you do indeed create an original artwork, please put a little piece of paper with your name and the date next to your composition when you take a photo of it, like this:

Your completed post should be a minimum of 250 words (a little less writing this week since you’re making an original work of art CD) include two images, links to research, and be carefully edited for grammar and clarity.
