Art Interpretation Project Awards 2016

11/27/2016

0 Comments

 
Each year during the last full week before Thanksgiving, my students participate in an Art Interpretation Project.  At the beginning of the week, they choose a  photograph that inspires them on which to base their project.  Then, each day, they learn about a different Spanish or Latin American artist (in the target language).  They apply what they have learned by creating a drawing of their photograph through the eyes of each artist.  The goal of the project is to learn about important people from the target culture, but also to pass on a bigger message about different perspectives and the value that they hold.

This year we focused on Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Frida Kahlo, and Fernando Botero.

Here are some of my favorites alongside their inspirational photographs from the target culture.
