Art 101: Final Exhibition in Second Life: Updated
As the second summer semester came to an end, Anthony Fontana’s Art 101 class in Second Life held a gallery opening on the final day of class. This opening and exhibition was open to the public and several SL residents and BGSU community members were in attendance! Visit the gallery by clicking on this SLURL:

This exhibition includes two floors of artwork. The first floor hosts work created by Art 101 students influenced by works from history. The full assignment sheet can be seen here. Each work is presented next to the work that inspired it. You can read more about what inspired the students by clicking on each of the works in Second Life.
The exhibition also includes a show of artwork by practicing artists curated by Art 101 students. The assignment sheet for this show can be seen here. Each student interviewed the artist about their work. The interview can be read by clicking on each work in Second Life.
Images from throughout the semester, including the exhibition opening can be seen here:
Below are a few of the “Extra Credit” postcards and posters made for the exhibition.

great post..wonderful artistic work….and post cards
superb blog
The point is that some educational systems at the state level do very well. It can’t be geographic proximity. I doubt these states have standardized their curricula either.
very interesting content
Like that quite a lot! Keep going!
Can you give a brief explanation on how the Obama inauguration image was done?

I personally like the Obama’s inauguration. Great artwork and great blog as well!
