Targets 1

Target, Jasper Johns (1974)

Since you have just finished your Archery unit in P.E. we have decided as a group to complete a project in art related to Targets. The three art classes in 6th grade (601, 602 and 603) have each come up with a different approach to this assignment. This project is going to be a mixed-media project and so far we are in the brainstorming phase trying to figure out what message you want to get across in your art pieces and how you are going to accomplish that.

Things that we have decided as a class are:

1. Your targets are not about destroying something. They are about bringing attention to an idea that you each find important.
2. You have also decided to create a larger group piece that each of you make a distinct part of.

Next we are going to start sketching out your ideas and clearly defining how the project needs to be planned and executed in your Development Sketchbooks.
