Before beginning this Art Journal, be sure to view the supplement Web Link The Amazing Impact of Land Art.
This documentary looks into how we, as humans, are often attempting to beautify our natural surroundings in ways that reflect us. Culture, time, and materials are looked at, as many of these artworks span from different periods of human civilization.
Journal Questions:
Describe any cultural, visual, and/or scientific influences that pertain to 2 artworks featured in the film.
Discuss how relevant your chosen artworks are by telling us how you have experienced their themes/ideas personally.
Which artwork do you find harmonizes/beautifies nature the best? Explain why.
Helpful Tips:
What I’m looking for is critical thinking. If you provide a book report that regurgitates the facts from the film, you may get a max of 8.5 on the “original content”. As for “critical analysis”, that’s where critical thinking reigns supreme. Discuss how the themes or artworks are relevant today, or discuss elements of art/principles of design about your chosen works if all else fails. Cultural heritage plays a huge role, and this is not about when it was made but also why the artworks are still important today. Personal input/experience is great for this portion of the rubric.
Avoid going to Google for answers to the questions or supporting information. The journal experience is about you telling me your very own thoughts that pertain to the questions while viewing the documentary film.
