Third Grade Surrealist Self-Portrait:
These self-portraits are based on dream imagery, symbolism, and devices used by the Surrealist Art Movement to uncover our unconscious thoughts and goals. Surrealist artists played games to gather ideas for their artwork, often achieving very strange combinations of images! What elements in these paintings do you think came from dreams?
Ask yourself: A “random juxtaposition”is a combination of two random objects that oppose one another to stimulate creativity. Can you find random juxtapositions in these paintings?
The display was designed by their 3D Visual Mdse instructor (moi), but it was the students responsibility to implement the display from the plan-o-gram and directives given to them. They were also given the clothing, but asked to style the mannequins the way that felt appropriate. They were somewhat thrown by the florescent pink wig.

Second Grade Hundertwasser-Inspired Landscapes:
Second grade students studied the whimsical and colorful work of Austrian painter and architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser, and created their own fantastic landscapes using repeating line and experimenting with color mixing and using complementary colors. Hundertwasser often added highlights of gold leaf to enrich his work, as have the second grade students! Many of these paintings feature faces hidden in the landscape, can you find them?
Ask yourself: What would living in each of these landscapes be like?

Fourth Grade Expressionist Painting:
These Emotion Compositions are inspired by the work of the Expressionist Art Movement. Students brainstormed common elements in paintings that lead the viewer to feel particular emotions, including color, symbol, brush stroke style, size and movement. After choosing an emotion, fourth grade students made extensive lists and sketches of all the visual elements that would help express that feeling. Can you guess the emotion of each painting without looking at the title?
Ask yourself: How might you paint each emotion differently, yet still express the essence of the idea to your audience?

work by a student who lived in America for a few years
I had my students do a class evaluation. They did't know it but it was helpful. From what I read...they want more games (I agree) and they liked the waffle making class...me too but it's hard work! I had to lug the items to school....I live an hour alway and I take the subway to work..=( too bad I don't live closer.

In this project the students were directed to the Nobel lecture speech by Harold Pinter where he criticized the U.S. for its foreign policies. They contrasted this with a parody "roast" that the comedian Stephen Colbert gave at the press core dinner in Washington DC. The results were odd, stunning, and let to interesting discussion in class.

They were also given some clothing, and they supplied others. I asked them to style the mannequins the way that felt appropriate. The space can be difficult to work in because it's only 30" deep.
