Team 4
To get started, each one of you should pick a new theme--not one of the ones that you chose as a class--and connect your NEW theme to one work of art of your choice. It doesn't have to be in your textbook.

I know we only have a couple days left but just some final thoughts. If we had more time, we could definitely keep going! There are so many works of art of men through time. I like how we used both paintings and sculptures (even though it was hard to display sculptures on sketch up). I know we had to get rid of that one painting at the last minute because we could not find the book again that it came from. We also took a lot of time to find it on the internet but no luck! I do have an idea for that space. We could either...
ReplyDelete1. Use that place for the introduction of our exihibit, which is what we have right now. That would be a great place to put it and there is so much space that we can use the whole introduction (since it is a little long). We can also put it in big font so no matter where you are in the room, you can read it and people don't have to crowd.
OR
2. We can put another painting there. The problem is that I do think putting the introduction there would be better for reading it as opposed to the small place in the hallway. It is something to think about the next two days. We could use:
Albercht Durer, Self-Portrait 1500
Jacques-Louis David, Oath of the Horatii 1785
Bronzino, Portrait of a Young Man 1530
There are so many options that we could do. We just have to decide. What do you guys think?
I think any of those are fine, at this point our project is very good even without another painting. If you would like to write a wall text for one of these and insert the work into the virtual gallery that would be great! What was the painting that we cut out, I wasn't aware of the issue...
