Program Module: Perspective in Art (3)

Learn how artists use aerial and vanishing point perspectives to create three-dimensional illusions. Learning the tricks of perspective can help students see the world in new ways. Students investigate methods used by Maurice Utrillo and Paul Cezanne—such as varying size and overlapping forms—to create the illusion of distance, explore Johannes Vermeer's manipulation of color, and learn how a viewer's perspective is affected by composition and technique. In other projects, students make a Chinese scroll, compose a Georges Braque-style cubist still life, and draw horses inspired by Edgar Degas' Race Horses. The 12 lessons in this program module feature the masterpieces below.
