Year 1 Term 2 Week 9 VAS1.1 Makes artworks in a particular way about experiences of real and imaginary things. Artists Centre Prompt: Create your own shape artwork - Introduce the new Artists centre. Display the prompt and explain that students are going to create an artwork using shapes. Link this to 2D shapes that students have been learning about in Mathematics. Revise what 2D shapes are. - Explain that in the Artists Centre students have clicked on a QR code and listened to Mrs C. share some information about an artist named Fernand Leger, prior to creating their own 2D shapes artwork. Tell the students that in today’s session we are going to learn about another artist named Wassily Kandinsky who is also an abstract artist. He too uses geometric and irregular shapes as well as lines and colours to create his artworks. - Show the students the autobiography of Wassily Kandinsky, to learn about who is and what kind of artist he is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-H42hoR0-s - Show the students a realistic painting (of a vase and a tree) and one of Kandinsky’s abstract artworks. -TPS: ‘Compare the two paintings and TPS what the differences are between the two, and what they think the word ‘abstract’ means? (The vase/tree is a realistic picture whereas an abstract painting does not represent a real image). - Explain to the students that abstract art means that it is not really a picture of something realistic that we can automatically identify. Kandinsky uses geometric and irregular shapes, lines and colours in interesting ways to create patterns and artworks that are completely abstract. He also has a condition called ‘Synaesthesia’ where he could see colour in music. Kandinsky was also known to paint whilst listening to music. - Watch the video of Kandinsky’s Black & Violet artwork, to show how he represented his artworks when listening to music. - Introduce and watch the story ‘The Noisy Paint Box’ by Barb Rosenstock which is based on a true story of how Kandinsky became an abstract artist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NovIGjDDdNc - Abstract art is more about the artist showing how they feel and expressing how they feel on a page, rather than painting something realistic. - Show the students the two artworks’ below. Ask the students the following questions: ‘What 2D shapes do you see?’, ‘What irregular shapes can you see?’, ‘What do you think the lines represent?’ and ‘How do you feel when you look at this artwork?’ - Model how to use Kandinsky’s artworks below as inspiration to create their own abstract artwork using geometric and irregular shapes as well as lines and colour. Have music playing in the background to encourage students to think about what Kandinsky created whilst listening to music. Music to listen to while painting.
