HS - ART HISTORY WORKSHOP
Tuesdays, 9:30–11am
#16SG36 Mar 1–May 3 (no 3/22 & 3/29)
A hands-on tour of the history of art, of painting,
and also touching on architecture. If only it were
possible to take students to the finest art
museums in the world or bring them to Monticello!
But what we can do is open up art books and turn
to the luscious reproductions of those paintings
and buildings and dive into those worlds created
there. We will discuss what the artists were
considering when they composed their paintings;
how they decided what to paint; and what they did
to make it look so wonderful. Make your own
paintings working on those principles. Analyze
the building designs of Thomas Jefferson and use
his design ideas to make your own building
designs. We will also look at the great masters of
painting and at least one architect from the
1500-1700’s, among them, Rubens, Georges
de la Tour, and Thomas Jefferson. Instructor:
