Students will create a graphic essay that discusses an artist and their works/movements. Students are encouraged to arrange all the relevant information in a manner that represents or connects back to the artist. Include things such as, time period, style of art, interesting facts, art movements, etc. This essay is a visual work of art as much as it is an informative essay, so you need to include an equal amount of imagery and text.
There are many ways to finish this project and to be creative. Check out the website HERE to take a look at how many different ways students completed a piece on Rene Magritte.
You will be assigned a random artist to study for your essay. Use resources from the internet to help find information for your artist. All of the artists listed are famous and you should have no problem finding information on them.
