AAAA!!! I haven't posted in a couple days. Sorry about that. Yesterday, we went through the Etruscan works. Today, we began looking at artwork from Rome. We weren't able to finish the Khan Academy video about the Colosseum--finish watching that tonight.
Also, you need to do some reading from my Elements of Architecture slideshow. Read about the Greek architectural orders, Roman architectural orders, the Roman arch, Roman vaulting, and Concrete. We are continuing to study artworks from Ancient Greece, and today, began to look at the Athenian Acropolis. I'm still modifying the slideshow, so if you look at it tonight, it might be a little different tomorrow.
I'm posting this now, but here is the slideshow--with links--for the artworks you will need to study over the weekend. Today, we will be starting to look at artworks from Ancient Greece. Make sure you complete the readings attached to the slideshow.
We'll begin the period by comparing our Box Notes from yesterday and then making sure everyone gets a copy.
Today, we'll be moving from the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt in the New Kingdom. Tonight, I will also want you to look at this Elements of Architecture slideshow and read all the way through the Mastaba to Pyramid slides (stop when you get to the Greek Orders) We continued looking at Ancient Egypt today---made it through the pyramids! Tonight, complete a Box Notes for your specific Pyramid. Write legibly. Tomorrow, we'll look at all of them, make sure everyone has what they need, and then I'll make copies for everyone. That way, you will all be experts in your understanding of the pyramids.
Today, we will begin our study of artwork from Ancient Egypt. We will be working through the different period chronologically, beginning in Pre-Dynastic Egypt and working through the different kingdoms.
