Pop art is an art form invented in the 1950's and 1960's. Pop artists thought that art should be something that everyone can relate to, and something that everyone can understand. They used common subject matter like soup cans, comic books, and food items. They also worked in a flat, graphic style with large areas of solid bright color.
Lots of fun and entertaining videos about famous artists. Some of the videos that are related to what we have covered in class are below as seperate links.
Hokusai was a Japanese printmaker. He made his art by carving wooden plates into stamps, inking the stamps, and then printing them on traditional rice paper. His most famous piece of art is "The Great Wave of Kanagawa", shown below. This artist was covered in the 3rd grade "Art of Asia" unit.
Kandinsky was a Russian painter who used his special brain and imagination to create abstract art. He had a form of "synesthesia" where he could see sounds as colors and shapes. This artist was covered in Kindergarten's "Kandinsky and Abstract Art" unit.
Henry Matisse is well-known for his "paper cut-outs", collages made from cutting shapes from paper and arranging them in an interesting way. We covered this artist in 1st grade when we made "Matisse Inspired Paper Cut-outs".
Vincent Van Gogh created some of the most memorable, loved, and expressive paintings known today. He used his unique style of lots of little marks of paint to give life to objects, people, and places in his work. We covered this artist in 2nd grade when we made "Van Gogh Inspired Flower Paintings"
The French surrealist painter Rene Magritte was interested in painting a dream. Before the surrealists, artists were mainly interested in representing the real world, but surrealists like Magritte and Salvador Dali wanted to paint what was in people minds and in thier subconcious. They thought our dreams could show us something different from what we see in the real world. We covered Magritte in 5th grade when we created "Surrealist Paintings".
