Art Historical Mural (a PostModern Perspective) select an image of an art work and explain to two class mates what attracted you to it, what it means to you and why, and what you think the artist was attempting to achieve? Dividing your partnership into A , B and C, divide the A's from the B's and C's in the room so you have three distinct groups in the class. In Groups A, B and C, collectively collaborate and invent a story you can tell using all the images. Present your stories to the class Take your stories and images and reorganize them into a mural which can visually deliver the story (use collage, markers, poster paints, etc.).
