Enduring Idea: Observation and Perspective
Essential Questions: How have people viewed art in the past? How does society's view of art affect the kind of art that gets made? What are the consequences of viewing art in that way?
Lesson: First I would have students learn about some different aesthetic theories such as Expressivist, Formalist and Institutional theory. I would have the students work in groups and each group would have one theory assigned to them to understand better. Then I would show different images from art history and have the students critique the artwork based on the theory they were given.
Objectives: From this lesson I hope that students will understand a little more about how art criticism works how it would affect art history and also allow them to understand how artwork can be viewed differently from different perspectives.
