Art Gallery

Hi,
I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed our class trip to the art gallery. I found our guide to be very helpful in showing us different ways to involve the students in the art, by creating the art, becoming the art, and thinking about the art. I liked how our guide involved movement and had us act out the Ted Heibert self portraits and move as the "creature" would move. My favorite part was the Nathalie Daoust exhibition. I liked how she used layers and transparencies to give her art a 3-D quality and depth. I found her images to be almost enticingly intimate yet they seemed almost as though the exposure was what the image was craving (if that makes sense to anyone out there).

I have included two photos of the art that we completed as a class, the first is the body paint from the dark room and the second is the self portrait on a transparency.
