The Art of Rugby • This lesson supports the National Curriculum for Art and Design at Key Stages 2,3,4: • ‘Explore and develop ideas’ • ‘Investigate and make’ • ‘Evaluate and develop’ • ‘Knowledge and Understanding’
‘Futurism: 1909-1920 • “Futurism” was a name given to art which was about movement, speed, confrontation, team work and “Dynamism” • This style of artwork has a “wow factor” • It is characterised by: • the repetition of lines • Brilliant colours • Flowing brush strokes • The illusion of movement (dynamic)
Think! Rugby in a Futurist style Think about: • Gloucester Rugby Club colours! • Red, white, black • The game of rugby! • Running, passing, tackling, jumping, diving, kicking, etc. • Team work! Physical and Dynamic. • Claims that ‘rugby is the greatest team game in the world’! • Communicating physical and dynamic movement through art
Your Challenge Use the photocopies of Gloucester rugby players to produce your own “Futuristic” style rugby drawing. • Look at the body positions, arms, legs, teamwork, movement, etc. • Your work will be called ‘The Dynamism of Rugby’ • When you have drawn your ‘composition’, colour it in using only red, white and black
Plenary • Present your Futurist composition to the group • Extension activities: • Enlarge your compositions into paintings, collages, murals, etc. • Produce other studies depicting speed and movement • IT opportunities for image manipulation • Further related studies of ‘Cubism’
