“The Art Assignment” by Sarah Urist Green is one of the best resources for art educators online presently! It has been one of my favourite series to follow and Sarah is an absolute inspiration…..sooooo…..for this do….pick any of the following assignments and try it out! P)lease post in our discussion page.
SINCE 2013, THE ART ASSIGNMENT HAS BEEN GATHERING ASSIGNMENTS FROM A WIDE RANGE OF ARTISTS, EACH COMMISSIONED TO CREATE A PROMPT BASED ON THEIR OWN WAY OF WORKING. YOU DON’T NEED TO HAVE SPECIAL SKILLS OR TRAINING IN ORDER TO DO THEM, AND THE ONLY MATERIALS YOU’LL NEED ARE ONES YOU PROBABLY ALREADY HAVE OR CAN SOURCE FOR FREE.
AN OPEN RESOURCE FOR ALL, THESE PROMPTS CAN BE CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES OR CREATIVE EXERCISES TO CALL UPON WHEN YOU ARE STUCK, BORED, OR IN NEED OF INSPIRATION. THEY CAN SPUR COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS BETWEEN YOU AND FAMILY AND FRIENDS, OR PLAY A ROLE IN THE EVOLUTION OF YOUR OWN ARTISTIC PRACTICE. THESE ASSIGNMENTS ARE INTENDED AS SPRINGBOARDS FOR ACTION, AND WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO INTERPRET AND ADAPT THEM AS YOU SEE FIT.
