第四星期作业 -- 艺术作品与你

第四星期:四月30--五月7日《艺术作品与你: final representation about 5 minutes long, May, 7th》

Can you give a brief description of a personal encounter with pieces of art work? Please bring reproductions or printouts of the art work to show and tell.

这个作业的主要目的在于描述艺术作品对我们的影响。大家准备时要强调你在某地,某时对作品瞬间的感受。一幅或多副作品。在某个博物馆,art fair, 或者studio ... 发生的事。可以稍微介绍艺术家的背景。不可超过5分钟长。

Show and tell 是讨论的高潮。望大家暗地使劲,好戏留在后边唱。但仍不妨make posts, ask quetions online before the meeting.

第二星期作业 -- 书中描绘了维米尔的哪几幅画

第二星期:四月17-24 《书中描绘了维米尔的哪几幅画》—Online post

Which of his paintings are mentioned in the book? Give some details. Make a post, state a fact, or ask a question. Please identiy them and add 1 or 2 to the shared document. I have put in the 1st one. Don't wait till all of them identified by others.

大家填填看:每幅画的名字可以填在这里

两点申明

  1. 为什么采取每星期作业的形式: 我们每个人都有独到, 精辟的见解,而每次却因时间的关系不能畅所欲言。如果大家随时将自己的看法和问题等出来,供大家讨论,借鉴,等到大家见面时就会把重点放在更有趣的问题上,希望大家支持.
  2. 英文和中文;我常用英文发言是因为用英文打字比较快。打中文太浪费时间。希望大家见谅。

如果你错过这个星期的作业,你可以随时补上,直到五月七日。
