Spring is now rolling on. I worked on my garden these past few days, ordered some plants from the garden catalogs and mulched. I decided that this is the season to introduce Cezanne . I am going to discuss and I use the YouTube videos for classes, and web museums to present artists a lot. Many art colleges have students put together videos about artists and post them on youtube. Just reminder never use a video without previewing it first. A few of my favorites are:
Cezanne: fruit still life, a real fun video about cubism and Cezanne does have one nude painting but fairly tame, and Mountains part one & two very, very good.
Frida Kahlo: awesome morphing of self portraits montage the kids love it!
VanGogh: Morphed self portrait another favorite, tribute montage,
Edvard Munch: The scream, the scream spoofed I do this with my 8th grade recreate The Scream,
The whistler's Mother with Mr. Bean part 1 and part 2 I use this for introducing art preservation, and critiquing art with my 7th grade just a fun last class activity. I use a spoofing video for the lesson how can you recreate Whistler's Mother painting.
Cultures: Egypt,
Arts world videos great video series Qatar Islamic art museum, Underwater art, Glass blowing
YouTube is a wonderful tool for the classroom.
