Making art out of Everything

Assemblage: Art made by assembling disparate elements often scavenged by the artist, sometimes bought specially.

See

Check out the wire and fabric works of this scrap artist!! Look for things you recognize in his sculptures! Notice how each animal has a distinct personality.

Say

• How does seeing art from found objects make you feel?

• Can a sculpture created by combining preexisting objects be seen as Fine Art when compared to bronze, marble, or other more traditional media?

• How do you feel it affects the accessibility of a sculpture when it is created from everyday objects?

Do

• Head to your tool shed, garage, or junk drawer. Look at the objects within. Can you create a bird or another animal by combining different objects? How will you connect them? Take a picture and share it here!
