Scale

This week students are working on their first creative projects. They are dealing w/ scale in 2D and are making some fabulous collages. I can't wait to see what they come up with!

Here are some inspiring works from contemporary and modern art that deal with scale:

 

Sophie in the restaraunt Le Germaine from French artist Xavier Veilhan.

 

Work on paper from installation at UCLA/Armand Hammer Museum, Los Angeles by Margaret Kilgallen

  

 Das schöne Mädchen (The Beautiful Girl, 1919-1920) by Hannah Höch.

  

 Pretty Girl Series, 1977 by Linder.
