Recreate a Masterpiece!

Appreciate Art from Afar

We can't actually visit a museum right now, but that doesn't mean we can't appreciate art. At the start of the coronavirus closures, the Getty gave the world of art appreciators an at-home challenge.

  • First read the original challenge from the Getty:
  • Then, do some research and find an artwork you would like to recreate. You can do a google image search or virtually visit a museum to get ideas.
  • Re-create an artwork with objects, yourself, food, etc. Keep it simple or get as ambitious as you like! Take a photograph and make sure to use bright lighting.
  • Upload your image alongside it's original to artsonia.com/class and write an artist statement about the original artwork. Note who the artist is, the title, how it was made, and the social/historical context. (You may need to do a little research) Due Friday @ 2
  • After the due date, go to our gallery at Artsonia.com and view your classmates creations.
