Year 9 Lessons - Term 3

( if you miss the lesson for any reason you should still complete both classwork and homework)

Boys without access to a printer (or indeed any boy) can send me research information (text and pictures) to print. A maximum of three pages will be printed and boys must use the A4 Powerpoint Template below (this has been split in half to be the same size as two pages in the sketchbook). Don’t forget to include your name and form and carefully size any pictures you need printing. Any printing required must be received at least 24hrs before the lesson.

INFORMATION FOR PUPILS & PARENTS

please watch the video below for an overview of work that should have been completed by students during Term 2

Lesson 1

Classwork : Students will now have the term to complete the following 3 pieces of work,

• a portrait inspired by Picasso’s painting ‘The Weeping Woman’ (this does not need to be self-portrait). See pictures below.

• research into one of the artists influenced by Cubism (not Picasso or Braque) - the choices either Chuck Close, David Hockney, Francis Bacon, Frank Gehry, Franz Marc, Juan Gris, Roy Lichtenstein or Umberto Boccioni.

• a piece of artwork influenced by the artist students researched who was inspired by Cubism

It is up to students to manage their time effectively (classwork and homework)using the template below. Here are two examples of how students may manage their time,

Homework: Students should follow their ‘Year 9 Work Plan for the Summer Term’.

Students will also need to collect Photographs for a portrait inspired by Picasso’s painting ‘The Weeping Woman and pictures for the research into one of the artists influenced by Cubism If need be. Remember if you need these printed they can be emailed to mrsroderick@st-ambrosecollege.org.uk You must use the ‘A4 PowerPoint Research Template’ at the top of this page.

Examples of ‘Weeping Woman’ style portrait can be seen below,

With your ‘Weeping Woman’ style portrait there also needs to be a written EXPLANATION. This needs to include,

1) An explanation of the pose you’ve used and how this is inspired by the ‘Weeping Woman’. For example how the hand is held up to the face drinking a can of drink, and how this is based on the way the ‘Weeping Woman’ holds a handkerchief to her face to catch her tears.

2) An explanation of the style and the colours you’ve used and how this is inspired by the ‘Weeping Woman’. For example how you have fragmented the face using bright colours, and used bold black outlines to reflect the bold and cubist characteristics of Picasso’s ‘Weeping Woman’ painting.
