Hey ninth graders! Together we are going to create an Art
Magazine featuring interviews with some of history´s most famous artist. In
pairs, you will research an artist and write interviews (obviously fake, since
most of them are dead), design nice layouts and print so we can later put them
together. This is part one of our
proyect and must be turned in on or before next tuesday, May 1st, and is worth 50 points.
Part two will be to create a conmemorative piece based on
their artwork, the kind of things you see in a museum gift shop (coffee mugs,
plates, T-shirts, stuff like that—the more original the better). This is due on or before Tuesday, May 8th,
and is worth 25 points.
Here is how you will proceed today:
1)
Choose a partner (only one)
2)
Choose your artist from this list, and let me
know right away

3)
Research this artist online and write an
“interview” for an Art Review magazine. DON´T JUST ASK QUESTIONS—you must write
about their work as well.
You may research artist interviews online
for ideas. Here is a good one:
After you have your interview, email it to
me (a.casals@gcnewhorizons.net).
Start working on your layout, which will be two 8.5”x11” pages (just like in a
magazine). Get images online. When you have finished designing, you must turn
printed.
In
the next class we will put the layouts together to create the magazine and
start working on your museum pieces, unless you bring them from home.
