The best way we learn is by accessing information in multiple ways; creating art, or in this case- recreating art is a perfect example of deeper learning. By investigating into a smaller set of works (4), and creatively thinking of how you can recreate the works- you are accessing multiple learning styles and multiple intelligences. Years from now, I bet you will definitely remember when you had an assignment where you had to re-create artwork at home with every day items, sometimes even our families and pets!

************

For this Assignment, we will be revisiting the Getty Challenge! This is a two part assignment; part 1 is creating the images, writing the summary and uploading here; part 2 is posting some images onto the Discussion board.

Part 1: The Assignment

Requirements for your Assignment

(If you need a refresher on the Getty Challenge, refer back to Discussion 4.)

• You must select 4 thematic chapters from the textbook and recreate 4 artworks in the Getty challenge style.

• You may choose artworks from our text book OR from the Getty Museum. BUT- the artwork must fall under the required categories as noted above.

• Replicate the image with yourself, your pets, family, or other household elements.

Your summary must use this template below:

1. 1. Your assignment should include your image and the image of the artwork that you are creating. Under that, provide a caption with: the original artwork title, medium (what it is made of), date, and artist.

   2. Provide a list of your materials,

   3. Discuss your process for each re-creation

   4. Discuss why you chose the theme.

   5. Discuss the reason why you chose those artworks.
