Elämyksiä vierailuilla

Ku1.1-kurssilaisia Jani Leinosen taiteilijatapaamisessa viime viikolla. Jani Leinonen puhui siitä miten kauheimmat julmuudet maailmassa syntyvät siitä ettemme reagoi vääryyksiin. Kotitehtäväksi jäi etsiä maailmasta jokin pieni tai suuri epäkohta seuraavan kahden viikon aikana ja pyrkiä vaikuttamaan siihen.

Ku1.2 -kurssilaisten kanssa vierailtiin EMMAssa Kosketus-kokoelmanäyttelyssä. Tässä porukka on eläytynyt ”veistospuistoksi”

EMMA-vierailu päättyi pajaan, jossa veistettiin saippuasta abstrakteja veistoksia.

Punainen Ilmapallo – The Red Balloon project

Ku5 -Nykytaidekurssilla on tehty videotaideteoksia The Red Balloon -klassikkoelokuvan ja suomalalaisten videotaideteosten innoittamana. Ajatuksena on mahdollisesti heittää punainen pallomme eteenpäin konkreettisesti ja kuvainnollisesti open ystävä kuvataideopettaja Mozelle Da Costa Pintolle ja hänen IB-lukiolaisille Kalifornian Redwood -cityn Sequoia -koulussa. Punaiset ilmapallot (kenties myös prinssi Albert) ja ainakin ideat matkustavat pian postissa. Katsotaan mitä siitä syntyy. Mutta nyt laskemme esiripun. Taidetta olkaa hyvät:

(Just briefly In English as well. These are short video art pieces that are distantly inspired by the movie classic The Red Balloon (1956). We are currently hoping to continue this ”The Red Balloon” -project with Sequoia High School Art students. Will the story of the red balloon continue? Or if somewhere out there you feel like joining our totally crazy, fun and not so serious The Red Balloon -challenge please feel welcome to make your own Red Balloon video! We’d be happy to share a link to your video as well. Link may be sent to: riikka.notkola(at)kauniaistenlukio.fi )

Väri,- ja elokuvaenergiaa!

Kuviksen ykköskursseilla on ollut ilo tutustua kaikkiin teihin uusiin kuvantekijöihin. Tänään ykköskursseilla eläydyttiin taidekauppiaan, kriitikon ja taidehistorioitsijan rooleihin, joista käsin annettiin palautetta toisen opiskelijan abstraktista tai puoliabstraktista maalauksesta. Kuvassa alla Katin maalaus:

Maalaustehtävän lomassa Joonas ehti esitellä lyhytelokuvakilpailuun toteuttamansa filminpätkän, jonka sain luvan jakaa kaikkien iloksi. Kiitos Joonas Grönholm. Työkumppanina ollut Julius Sevón Viherlaakson lukiosta. Tästä saa viikonloppuun hyvät naurut:

Prince Albert – The Man Behind the Frame

You might have heard of me. You might have seen me somewhere. Good day ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce myself: I am Prince Albert. I have the honour to be a guest blogger here in your school’s wonderful art blog. It really is an honour, indeed. I will be telling you about my journey. It starts in the wonderful capital of Finland, Helsinki. I am very happy about this opportunity and I hope you will enjoy my journey and pictures as much as I did.

Dis is MOI

My journey started here in Kauppatori. It’s a very nice place where you can see Finns selling fish, eating ice cream and all of the pigeons staring at you. I think the pigeons were just jealous of me.

Art is the spark of light in this black and white world

Here I am, just hanging. Even though this picture is kind of greyish I can assure you that not whole Helsinki is like this. Not at all! I really love this city already, indeed.

Just hanging with the President

Here I am hanging with the President of Finland. How cool is that? How many of you have tried this? Not many, I suppose.

Feeling melancholic

I decided to go to the seaside because I felt a bit melancholic. I had just met the President – at least kind of? I made myself believe that I saw the President but I am not sure about it anymore. Maybe I only imagined everything in my mind and that’s what makes me melancholic. But isn’t that normal in Finland, in the country of fantasy?

Perhaps this piece of art truly is just garbage, after all.

The aftermath of melancholy is always like this but perhaps a kind soul can pick up this worthless little me.

Beauty is art

Finns are actually very warmhearted people. This sweetheart even wanted a picture with me. Really makes my melancholy fade away!

Can you find me now?

But really though, can you find me? This was fun.

Cover your bum, lady!

Helsinki is very beautiful, indeed, but this thing shocked me!

Call me maybe

The old me can’t keep up with these trends but call me maybe? Helsinki is too modern.

Pop Albert

I met this wonderful lady called… Uhm, what was her name again? However, we had good time together. We old sports were so hippie together.

The Urban Albert

 

The urban scenery is just made for me, don’t you think? I might get old but hippies are forever! Is this bench hippie enough for me?

Confused in Starbucks

I was invited to this coffee place called Starbucks. I am very confused, indeed. I had to order coffee instead of tea! Can you believe that?

Friendship is magic

I made another friend. Is this pizza food Finnish?

Home sweet home

Finally I am here! This is what I’ve been looking for the entire day. I am so happy to find my destination. What a journey this has been, indeed. I am very glad to have been able to write you about my journey here in Helsinki. Good bye and may we meet again!
