REMBRANDTS MOVIE CAMERA
​​2018-1-DE03-KA229-047216_5
In our last Erasmus+ project we had a student mobility to Italy where we visited a museum in Florence. During this visit, the group discovered the exposition named "Bill Viola". The students started to play with their own Handy, creating works like Bill Viola. One student said this would be a good idea for the next Erasmus + project. And we as teachers said that's a good idea.
The experience from all partners is that sometimes it is difficult to motivate students to work with classic works of art, but it is very easy to motivate them to make a movie. Our project will be used as a method to combine both themes. Without exploring classic works, students will not be able to produce the films.
Our Project “Rembrandts movie camera” involves art, theater and film production. These three fields are very loved by students and we intend to use them to improve students learning motivation and students ICT skills by using innovative teaching approaches. The participants will explore own artworks, learn how to plan film projects, to deal with the digital film technology, the editing as well as the public presentation. A side effect is the active use and immersion of the English language. There is much room for creative ideas, the participants will learn more about national and European art and painters.
Furthermore, the participants will acquire experience in occupational fields that normally are outside their daily experiences.
Bill Viola (b. 1951, United States) is internationally recognised as one of the leading artists of our time, an acknowledged pioneer in the medium of video art.
For over 40 years he has been making work that explores a series of humanistic and spiritual issues. His works include room-size video installations, sound environments, electronic music performances and flat panel video pieces, as well as works for television broadcast, concerts, opera, and sacred spaces.
Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn was a Dutch draughtsman, painter and printmaker.
An innovative and prolific master in three media, he is generally considered one of the greatest visual artists in the history of art and the most important in Dutch art history.
Unlike most Dutch masters of the 17th century, Rembrandt's works depict a wide range of style and subject matter, from portraits and self-portraits to landscapes, genre scenes, allegorical and historical scenes, and biblical and mythological themes as well as animal studies.
