Go See Artworks LIVE!!

Today and hopefully at least 4 other times this school year we will walk together to see ART LIVE in person.  The reason is this: Being present with artwork is different than books, magazines, internet, film, etc...  Experience the feeling, smell, light, display, sounds, and all that is there.  Record what you experience and note what you LIKE!  Use images taped into your IW and notes.
Return (in your IW) to AT LEAST ONE= artwork/artist that you see today, after our visit. Dig deeper and find out a little more.  Include other images by that artist to compare to. Print and attach into your IW any written information you find.

P.A.D.A ( http://padaoregon.org/ ) is the Portland Art Dealers Association and a great link to see what is CURRENT live Artwork in Portland.

As we do not have any "cushion"time after school we will be leaving as close to the start of lunch as we can (11:10) so come to the Art room with a walking lunch and your IW, pencil, coat and purse (please no backpacks!).

Portland Art Museum is FREE and so are most galleries in Portland.  GO there!
