Let’s look at one of the most famous artists from spain…. Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez

Explore! (Links are on my webpage) Using your device (or a borrowed laptop), work with your teams to find out the following information about Velazquez: When did he live? What type of painting did he do? (realistic, abstract, etc.) What are typical characteristics/similarities in his works? **Remember. This is ART and sometimes artists paint all of the human body. If you run across anything that is not middle school appropriate, please be “professional” and move on. Velazquez Look for characteristics/similarities here! http://www.biography.com/people/diego-vel%C3%A1zquez-38179#later-years http://www.diegovelazquez.org/home-3-12-1-0.html http://www.britannica.com/biography/Diego-Velazquez

Explore on your own… Do an internet search for “artist from the 17th century”. Compare and contrast artwork from that time period in general to that of Velazquez’s. For example, were most artists doing portraits or something else? Were most artists doing realistic paintings or something else? Be prepared to talk about at least one other painter and tell the class how his/her artwork compared to Velazuez’s work. Finally, in your opinion, was Velazquez’s are a form of Self-Expression or was he making a statement about something? SUPPORT your opinion!
