Week Thirteen 4/17 4/19
T: Discussion Cezanne
H: Imaginary Artist Wikipedia page due
In class: Go to SEVERAL places on campus where there is artwork displayed and find:
1. A piece that is a work of ekphrasis in some way. Bring a title and description back to class to explain why.
2. A piece that has been influenced in some way by your imaginary artist. Get its title and description and tell us why or how. (You can incorporate this information into a later version of the wikipedia page to be displayed with your piece for the Honors show.) I understand that you will be making up the influence, but I am asking you to imagine that the work of this person has a certain voice, style, tone, themes, colors, shapes, etc. and that you can extrapolate from that to see how a piece could seem "influenced" by yours. )
