Metamorphosis “You’re a contemporary artist preparing to give artist talk at the MOMA presenting your artwork and how you have expressed the driving concept within your work. Art critics and enthusiasts alike will be attending to listen and view your recently documented work within a Power. Point presentation of 7 -10 minutes. ”

Metamorphosis Instructions You will be creating a piece of conceptual art based off an everyday experience or topic. You will have the choice of focusing on one of three options: 1. an installation 2. a performance piece 3. transformation of an object showing your everyday experience/topic. The ‘final product’ will be the documentation of your work, in photograph or video format. Some examples are: photographing your process (installation or transformation) or recording an everyday experience or habit (performance). We encourage you to use your cellphones, as this is a constant within our lives. You will show your documentation, and talk about your concepts in a 7 -10 minute Power. Point presentation.

Metamorphosis This project is due Dec. 1 st by the beginning of evening class. This allows Thanksgiving Break if you need more time finishing things up. Power. Points should be emailed to or transferred to front computer via flashdrive by 5: 05 pm so that we may start presentations right away. We will have a sign-up sheet for presentation times.

Metamorphosis Inquiry Questions What is the purpose of art? Why did you have a hard time coming up with ideas for this assignment? Can you empathize with younger students? Why would they struggle more with conceptual art? How can you, as a teacher, approach conceptual art? How can this be perceived in a different way?
