Wednesday's Assignment

Have you ever seen a painting that you thought you understood at first and then you start wondering about it? How about an artist that changes his style so you can never quite figure him out?

  1. What do you think of this famous painting? What does it look like to you? A skull, maybe? What's the name of the artist? What do you think his life was like? What else did he draw?
    Here are your tasks:
    1. Listen to this lesson. What do we say when we hear a compliment? Take notes.
    2. Take dictation from this video's 00:18 - 00:41 about Kurelek’s painting in the UK's Maudsley and Netherne psychiatric hospitals. Check your transcript with a partner before posting.
    3. Compare Kurelek’s paintings in Gallery 1 and Gallery 2
      1. Can you think of some compliments for each?
      2. Make some sincere and insincere compliments and tell a partner.
    TRANSCRIPT TO NO. 2, COURTESY OF JANICE AND ALI (and Joseph):
The Maze is painting of inside my skull which I painted it when I was in England as a patient in the Maudsley and Netherne psychiatric hospitals. It's a story of my life where in a sense that people tell stories by the fire place join and entertain I guess,try to make them accept you. In this case I want to be accepted, as a interesting specimen.
