I love art that contains a message. I have this print hanging on my wall. While it is great to have to decipher deeper, hidden meanings from a piece at times, I love this picture because the message is great and to the point. I think I could bring this into a classroom and have students say what it means to them, and tie it into a language arts lesson and a fine arts lesson to incorporate some cross-curricular activities.
Beautiful. The combination of the quote and the image adds to the power of the message. You could discuss that with your class, how images can bring life to text and get them to give examples of where they have seen that.
ReplyDeleteThis post is especially relevant, what with the weather we've been having. Discussing the meaning of art is a fun way to get students thinking.
