Kruger Concern Drawings

(IF YOU ARE HERE TO LEARN ABOUT FOUND ART CLICK 'FOUND ART' ON THE RIGHT UNDER THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER)

After studying the work of the artist Barbara Kruger, students chose a topic they were concerned about. We discussed personal concerns, world concerns, and how artists communicate their views through their work. Below you can see some of their wonderful work. In our drawings, we focused on getting the correct proportion and shading in values according to their resource photographs. I think they did an outstanding job don't you?!
