Also check out the unit plan from the
titled The Diversity of Artistic Expression in the Works of
Pennsylvania Artists:
By studying the diverse
works of Pennsylvania artists in this unit, students will realize that
cultural, historical and social influences along with personal
experience have major impacts on the artists' work. In this unit,
students will become familiar with the work of Pennsylvania artists and
the cultural, historical and social contexts in which they were
produced. After comparing/contrasting artworks, analyzing data and
transforming it into a visual timeline, students will create a
composition that includes both personal experience and the influence of
a Pennsylvania artist.
