Call and Response Project, Art making

You will be exhibiting this project at the Sella-Granata Gallery. Pieces should be exhibition worthy, and ready to hang, by Monday, April 15th, during class. All pieces should be matted, framed, and wired by this time. The final decision about whether pieces are worthy of display is up to faculty involved (primarily me, but possibly others). A passing grade requires exhibition of work, if that makes sense... I am fully confident that you you're going to knock this one out of the park. You have some great ideas already!

For this project, create at 2-3 responses your selected Paul R Jones image. A single response may include several pieces. Roughly speaking, there will be 5-6 framed objects on the wall associated with you (including your source image).

Artist statements, drawing heavily from your written work for this project will also be displayed. This statement should be about a page in length. It should introduce gallery viewers to the PRJ piece, along with the concepts and themes you are engaging in your responses. Each response should receive a paragraph of introduction as well. The statement should be printed, mounted on board for display on the wall. Statements must be approved for display. Plan on multiple drafts.

This project will be evaluated along the following criteria:
  • Coherence of concept/idea/themes explored in response to PRJ piece
  • Aesthetic strength of images
  • Technical strength of images
  • Professional level presentation—quality of prints, matting and framing
  • Written statement

Critique dates:
Response 1 due: 3/13
Response 2-3 due: 4/3
