10/20/10 Intro to Art

Today's Class- Today I collected the research papers from everyone who had one. They will be graded and returned next week. Today's art topic was the medium of photography. I showed slides from the early history of photography through the present, breaking them down by chronology and common themes. After the slides, I distributed and reviewed a take home photography assignment. We took a break, then used the rest of the class to tour the various art studios in Vaughn Eames and visited an exhibition across campus.

How to make this up- The photo assignment was distributed on a handout, but if you weren't there today or misplace your copy, the full assignment, along with some student examples, can be found here.

Homework- The take home photo assignment is due at the beginning of class on November 3, 2010. The photos must be printed out and individually labeled, but don't have to be mounted.

If you haven't yet turned in your research paper, bring it to class as soon as possible.

For next class 10/27/10- We will use the paints again, so bring your 18" x 24" pad, watercolor paints, brushes, palette, and water container.
