RAUSCHENBERG, Robert Estate 1963
Next term grade 8 will look at the environment in art. The environment can mean the natural environment or our man made environments. Students will be given the challenge to produce a piece of art using Milan as a starting point and stimulus.
Here is the information Mr. Kerr will give you to help you get started.
Milan and our Environment. How to get started.
Milan and our Environment. How to get started.
What does “environment” mean? Look it up in the dictionary.
What kind of environment do you think might be good for the Milan council building art work to feature or be based on? Why? Look at artists who have worked on this theme before. Steal their ideas! Make a visual resource in your workbook of artwork featuring different kinds of environments, for example: ·

Make a visual resource in your workbook of artwork featuring different kinds of environments, for example: ·
Interiors · Natural environments · Forest · Scrubland · Mountains · Desert · Seas and oceans · Pasture, grasslands and savannah · Jungle and rainforest · Man made and urban environments · Cities · Towns · Villages
Find pictures of different kinds of environments in newspapers and magazines. Use these for your visual resource in your workbook.
Look out of the window. That’s Milan!!
Start looking at the city you live in. Find pictures of the environment in and around Milan. What is Milan famous for? Which landmarks do we recognize in Milan? How could you add these into your artwork without making it banal?
Homework
Bring in newspapers (must be newspaper no magazines!!) which have pictures showing cities, the Corriere della Sera is a good one.
Bring in a spoon!

the new topic sounds exciting. I think we will have fun on friday with the spoon, newspaper and glue.
I like a lot the collages of Mimmo Rotella and Robert Estate and I think they both expressed very well what they saw most in their city, for example Marlyn who was a very big celebtity. I liked the technique of including in the collage a newspaper title with on wrote Marlyn, because it showed thet during those days Marlyn was so important she endeed up in all the magazines. I think the new topic will be very fun and I can't wait to start my painting on Milan.
