Unit Overview: Students will understand how to create 3-D sculpture using the method of deconstructing a book. Students will understand how experimentation, creativity, and self-expression are important elements in creating a work of art that is original and successful.
This is a fifth grade lesson I taught about deconstructed books. Students learned about the Green Art movement and Recyclable Art. Students looked at artwork by artists such as Marcel Duchamp and Bernard Pras to see how artists have recycled materials to create works of art. Students were shown multiple methods of deconstructing a book and the techniques of using tools and materials to achieve certain effects. Students were encourage to experiment with media and form to create original 3-D sculptures from within the book. Students discussed the difficulties, successes, and things they learned from this process at the end of the unit.
