Jonathon Ross ‘Japanorama’
Art in Context task.
You can watch the video again here: http://www.tv-links.cc/tv/Jonathon-Ross-Japanorama.htm (episode 3) or type the artists names into You Tube for shorter clips or other videos with/about their work.
Over 3 sides of writing and imagery in your RWB you should consider the following questions (make notes during the video)
What are some of the main themes/subjects/ideas/features of the J Art shown in the video?
How does contemporary Japanese Art reflect Japanese society including modern technology, mass media, culture, recent history? Think about Japan’s industrial development following the second world war – America occupied Japan and influenced a great deal of what has happened there since.
How does contemporary Japanese Art reflect Japanese Art of previous ages? Try to find examples by Hokusai, Hiroshige etc and compare the composition, themes, techniques and so on...
The artists featured in the video include :
Toast Girl Keiichi Tanaami Takashi Murakami Yoshimoto Nara Junko Mizuno
Research Workbook Tasks – Years 12 & 13 (including Madrid work)
Next book collection will be right after half term holiday to give you chance to finish all of the Madrid research – Monday 25th Feb (Day 3) which is a book day.
The basic task is the same for both Year 12s & Y13s:
Before Madrid:
3 sides for the Japanorama video (Describe the contemporary Japanese Art & it’s context – see the sheet!)
7 sides of illustrated research into the lives, context and art of any 3 of the following list of artists whose work you will be seeing in Madrid (3 artists spread over the 7 sides, not 7 sides per artist!):
Velazquez Bosch Goya Murillo Breughel El Greco Rubens
Rembrandt Durer Picasso Tintoretto Dali Tapies Miro
Prepare 20 sides for working on in Madrid – some might be textured, others might be simple washes. Remember that you need to be able to work over these BACKGROUNDS with pencil, pen & other media that you will take with you. Don’t make them too dark or heavy.
During Madrid:
You will choose a specific theme that will help you focus during the Madrid trip – remember you won’t just be working in the galleries. You are visiting the CITY OF MADRID. You must begin (and in some cases complete) at least 20 sides during the trip. A few bus tickets are OK, but it isn’t a scrap book. It is a Critical, Contextual & Visual Diary investigation!
Themes to choose from (choose one to focus your research on the WHOLE trip):
Light Movement Texture Surfaces Barriers Power Tension Frames
After Madrid:
Finish off the pages – some can be left wild and energetic, but you should make some pages really sumptuous!
Much of your CONTEXTUAL research might be added after you return (but check the galleries for information whilst you are actually there).
Plus (integrated within all of that) 3 sides (minimum) about the development of your own current project(s)
Next book collection will be right after half term holiday to give you chance to finish all of the Madrid research – Monday 25th Feb (Day 3) which is a book day.

No other luggage may be brought (you will have to leave it at the airport!) Max size: 10kg with the maximum dimensions of 55x40x20cm. Remember that you will be carrying this with you on public transport and whilst walking long distances – hence no big suitcases! Liquids (shampoo, gels etc) must be in containers of 100 ml or less.

Clothes/equipment: This is the Art expedition! Students should come dressed to walk and work (including outdoors!) Comfortable shoes and a waterproof coat are essential. Madrid can be very cold in February! Students should bring their current RWB with at least 20 sides prepared for drawing & writing. A range of pens, pencils, pastels and other drawing materials are essential as is a camera, preferably digital. Phone cameras are not really adequate in quality. No knives or scissors can be brought. Each student will produce 20 sides or more of visual and written research plus hundreds of photographs and possibly video footage during the trip and this will form the basis for the rest of their studio work in Art this year – so it has to be good!
