This week in American culture class we learned about a few famous American painters and art movements. Here are some of the artists and the movement/genre they represent:
Edward Hopper - realism
Georgeia O'Keefe - modernism
Jackson Pollock -abstract expressionism
Andy Warhol - pop art
Jean-Michel Basquiat - primitivism, neo-expressionism
Cindy Sherman - photography
Richard Serra - sculpture
To finish up class, we played a game where students were given a postcard sized reproduction of a piece of art we had seen in my presentation. Another student in the class had the same reproduction. Students went around the room asking each other about the images of other students in order to figure out who had the same image as them.
See you after vacation! Have fun!
