Students have been in the planning stages of their next project the Ottson Masquerade!
We looked at pieces from Saul Steinberg's, "Masquerade" series to get inspired. Saul Steinberg was a cartoonist and illustrator best known for his work for The New Yorker Magazine. Steinberg took photos of models dressed up with brown paper bags on their heads showing a cartoonish face. The faces showed some expression or emotion and the set up for the shot was usually very ordinary. The kids are working in small groups and planning the entire thing themselves, I will be there to take the photo. I will post all the photos when I am done, and they will also be printed and on view on December 17th...at our ART SHOW!!! (6-8 PM @ the Ottoson).
