ACTIVISM THROUGH ART, GRADES 9–12
Rating
0.0 stars

This collection of lesson plans investigates ways artists address political and social issues through their
practice. By carefully examining three works of art from the Chazen’s collection, students will be able
to consider what activism is and how it relates to them and their community. The artwork used in the
curriculum ranges from photographs of schoolchildren exploring their use of language (Ewald) to a
silhouette narrative examining our nation’s fraught history with racism (Walker). The artwork is diverse
in medium, subject, tone, and message. However, several universal themes are present.
The artwork in this collection connects to activism through:
• Addressing histories of oppression
• Considering issues of representation
• Bringing awareness to social and political issues

Art 1. Lesson plans for beginner Art program.
Rating
0.0 stars

This site explores the elements of art and principles of design with videos, examples and lessons.

The elements and principles of design are the building blocks used to create a work of art.

Elements of Art are the visual "tools" that artists use to create an art work - they are what makes up an image or an art object: line, shape/form, value, color, space, and texture.

Principles of Design are the ways artists use the Elements of Art in an artwork - this is "what we do with the Elements" - how we arrange them, how we balance them, what is being emphasized, etc. The principles are: balance, contrast, repetition, emphasis, and unity.

The Boxwood Project
Rating
0.0 stars

The AGO’s collection is searchable on their website, but some exhibits stand out more than others.
One gem on the website right now is The Boxwood Project, which contains countless photos of exquisitely tiny gothic carvings, accompanied by not just one scientific analysis showing how researchers figured out how the beads were made, but numerous essays on the topic.
Another feature is an interactive website compiling around 3,000 photographs taken by Henryk Rozencwaijg-Ross of the Jewish ghetto in a Polish city during the Holocaust. Visitors to the webpage are encouraged to use the “Build My Collection” function to curate their own exhibit out of the photographs and share it with others.

THE CAMERA AS A WEAPON AGAINST INJUSTICE
Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students will explore how visual arts can be a tool to advance social justice and cultural change. Students will use a critical media literacy framework to closely examine the 1956 Gordon Parks Life magazine photo essay, “The Restraints: Open and Hidden,” and explore other unpublished photographs Parks took during
this assignment. Students will then explore how current artists such as Devin Allen continue to be inspired by Parks’ work to illuminate injustices through the visual image. Students will see the power of visual art to break down barriers of understanding, bring individuals closer to injustices occurring in their communities, and solidify the historical record for future generations.
