Representational artwork is work that is modeled after an actual object or depicts something easily recognized by most people.
Artists to look at include
Victor Spinski,
Duchamp,
Marilyn Levine,
Andy Warhol,
Robert Rauschenberg, and
Mapplethorpe, among others.
Students are asked to bring in an object that is important to them in some way, they are then asked to recreate the object using only paper, glue, and gesso.
