Unit 1: Contextual References in Art & Design

For this unit, we studied the history of art which included the modern art movements such as expressionism and surrealism. We also looked at Ipad art and Pop Art. I made a self portrait in the style of Pop Art. We had to design and make a timeline for our final outcome. It had to be something really creative, so I came up with the idea of making mini t-shirts out of cardboard. During this unit, we also looked at figuration, Girl with the Pearl Earring, the Duchess portraits and the Turner Prize.
