Trove Arts ART CAMP ADVENTURES at the Trove Arts ART PARLOUR are crafted to be one of the most exciting things to do in Milwaukee in the summer for children and will include 5 mornings of in-depth, immersive lessons led by Julia - a teacher and lifelong professional artist - and enhanced with dramatic surround-sound, custom video presentations, and theatrical lighting.
Students will gain an appreciation of several important artists, as well as an understanding of their place and time in history.
Julia begins each lesson by sharing inspirational tales of artists' lives and innovative ideas, through engaging storytelling featuring sound effects, music, video and immersive lighting. These lessons include original games, video segments, and mysterious treasure hunts.
Then students are guided through a step-by-step art instruction inspired by the artist of the day, resulting in a work of art in the style of the artist of the day.
SESSION A: Impressionism through Surrealism
Students will travel through time to learn about the Impressionist Movement sparked by the Industrial Revolution, through the Abstract Expressionist movement using art to capture emotion, to the random playfulness of Dadaism, and finally the symbolic ideas of Surrealism.
