Students will be introduced to an American woman sculptor named Deborah Butterfield for our next Art Literacy discussion. They will also get a chance to work with ceramic clay for the art project which we hope will be cherished for a long time.
Objectives: Students will be able to describe how Deborah Butterfield's sculptures have changed the way horses are viewed in art. Students will be able to describe how Deborah Butterfield has abstracted the horse in her sculptural works. Students will discuss whether or not art can be created only from certain materials and if art should have a meaning. Vocabulary: Sculpture: any work of art carried out in three dimensions (height, width, and depth) Form: an object that has volume; that takes up space. A three-dimensional object: the object had height, width, and depth. (Shape only has two dimensions, height and width) Abstract: an artist makes an abstraction by simplifying or rearranging natural objects. When simplifying an object, the artist changes the color, line, shape, form, and texture until the object has been reduces to its most basic form.
