Content areas include media and techniques, history and culture, criticism and appreciation, and design. Four core units present fundamental art knowledge through themes based on self and environmental exploration. Media and techniques used include drawing, collage, sculpture and ceramics. Four secondary units are enrichment oriented. Maskmaking expands on self-exploration by examining different faces humans present to establish identity and communication. Mass media introduces students to concepts of advertisement communication. Differences between need and want are explored. Landscape is studied as interpretations of environment as seen, remembered, or imagined. Investigation of the future allows for exploration of various scenarios with a wide variety of materials. The teaching method employed is problem solving/inquiry. Idea journals and portfolios are identified and used as evaluation tools. Appendices and bibliographies are included.

  • George Glenn: Process of Making Art Becomes a Positive Force
    George Glenn: Process of making art becomes a positive force Commissioned by the Saskatchewan Arts Alliance “Paradise” is how artist George Glenn describes Saskatchewan. Born in Regina’s Lakeview neighborhood, “right next to the prairie”, Glenn remembers his boyhood there when the “tumbleweed would roll down McCallum Avenue”. Today he’s a visual artist who makes his home in Prince Albert, where he has been working as an artist and teacher for more than 25 years. Glenn has found that Saskatchewan is a place where he can create, exhibit, and enjoyed a community of friends who are, in his words, “artists of life”, though they may not necessarily be working in art Glenn mostly stays close to home, but he speaks of “trips”, “travels” and “space”, which seemed to be recurrent themes in his life and art. In 1959 when he was a teen, and his interest in art had already surfaced, Glenn’s family moved to Winnipeg, where he went to Grant Park High School and the University of Manitoba. In 1970 after receiving a degree in fine arts, he moved to Alberta and worked as a curatorial assistant at the Glenbow Museum for two years. His next move took him to the master of fine arts program at the University of Cincinnati where he graduated in 1974. He says his most significant influences were teachers he encountered at the University of Manitoba. Alex Bruning, Ken Lochhead, George Swinton and Ivan Eyre, though very different in their paintings styles, all “demonstrated enthusiasm about the making of art”. The enthusiasm was infectious for Glenn.
