Pre-K started their unit on collage with these all in white
pieces. Students were shown a few
examples of how contemporary artists
work all in white to show the subtleties of different textures such as Marcel Broodthaers,
Robert Ryman and Piero Manzoni. We learned how TEXTURE IS HOW SOMETHING
FEELS and some of the different materials we were able to use were bumpy,
smooth, rough, foamy, and fluffy items to make our collages. Since this was Pre-k’s first stab at gluing
and arranging shapes to make a collage, we focused heavily on properly wiping and dotting our glue as well as where to
place our shape on our formats Some
artists even learned the term OVERLAPPING, which is when we put a shape on top
of another shape. After starting with white we have moved on to orange and green and will soon begin using scissors.
