=German Expressionist Prints=

Homework due Monday, 24 May

Please spend some time meandering through the following site: []

You will be looking at German Expressionist Prints. We will be doing a short unit on printmaking and I would like you to choose 2-3 images to think and briefly write about. You will most likely start carving on Monday and it will be good to have seen some examples of carving.

1. Compare and contrast the works, discussing them in terms of subject matter, composition, and style. 2. Use the language of art (reminder: the Principles of Art: balance, contrast, emphasis, pattern, movement, rhythm, unity) in your writing. 3. Please print out your work to bring to class and share. 4. Give MLA-format credit for any sites you use. Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, (German, 1884-1976), Fraukopf / Head of a Woman

You will be getting a Reasoning Grade for this homework. It will be based on your thoroughness in your thinking and writing and your use of art language in your writing. Please follow all directions and have homework passed in on time. (Monday!!)
