This program focuses on art from the United States while exploring the theme of patriotism. We investigate how each artwork illustrates a significant moment in the development of American political history and cultural trends, beginning with the colonial period through the American Revolution, Civil War, Centennial celebration, and the U.S. entry into World War I. Artworks shown are by noted American artists such as John Singleton Copley, Emmanuel Leutze, Winslow Homer, and Childe Hassam. Included are portraits, history and landscape painting, sculpture, and decorative arts. While discussing these artworks, students participate in a visual tour of early American history.

Los Angeles County Museum of Art

Education: Grade(s): 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Adult
Still life is a category of artworks in which the subject is inanimate such, as a bowl of fruit or an arrangement of flowers. In this class, we will look carefully at a variety of still-life paintings and photographs from the seventeenth century to the present-day. Together, we will investigate the ways in which these works of art convey deeper layers of meaning about collecting, moral values, and aesthetics of form through their cultural context as well as through the artist's deliberate selection and arrangement of objects.

Program Flyer: French Impressionism: Color, Light, & Modern Life
Request this Program Now
Los Angeles County Museum of Art

Education: Grade(s): 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Adults
Impressionism developed as a major artistic movement in the late 19th as society became more industrialized and urbanized. Impressionist painters were interested in the subjects of a new modern life in Paris, the leisure activities of the middle class, and nature. Their style was revolutionary and aimed to capture the fleeting effects of light, color, and time. Students examine the development of French Impressionism as it corresponds to six major technological and cultural breakthroughs of the 19th century. Impressionist artists featured from LACMA's collection include Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro, Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, and Mary Cassatt.
