This week we read Historic painting and Neo- Expressionism, from Painting Today. As well as 95 Theses on Painting, 10 rules for Creative Projects, and Chuck Close on Creativity.
We had two podcasts, Kerry James Marshall and Molly Zuckerman Hartung.
The practice for this week was to do library and feild research, build studio plans, and work on painting from imagination.
The writing for this week was to write a Exegesis essay. I wrote on a passage from Neo- Expressionism that discussed why art in the 80s and today is so expressive of self.
On Wednesday Shaw gave a excellent lecture on expressionism and then we attended a Art Lecture Series with Susana Bloom. She is very interested in painting landscapes as expressive of here thoughts and feelings surrounding them.
This week helped my find my question for my project and I’m working on getting images picked for my project.
