Post on the class blog the sculptor you chose and their biographical information. Do some additional research and find examples of their work. Post 3 pictures that summarize the artist’s main style. Find a link to a blog either by the sculptor or one that critiques the sculptor’s artworks. Answer the following questions in complete sentences. Expand on your answers where necessary. 1) Does the sculpture fit into mainstream art? Would you find their works displayed at major museums? Could you put this sculptor’s works in your grandma’s house? 2) What have you learned about the artist that you find most interesting? 3) How are you inspired by their sculptures? Bonus: If the sculptor has a personal blog, post a comment about their artwork. Post that link on the class website, so your classmates may see the comment you made.
