Collaborative Grid

In class we recreated an original piece by Robert Delaunay and personally, I think it turned out great! Robert Delaunay was a French artist who was born in the 1800's and was well known for his use of strong colors and geometric shapes. This particular piece is called Rythme, Joie de vivre and might be important in the history of art because it uses such vivid colors and shapes, and really makes a statement when you look at it. This piece of art was probably different from anything else in this time period, and that's what makes it unique. I thought our class did a really great job of putting this piece together, especially because we had no clue what the original looked like to start off with. I learned that art can be a lot of fun, and not all pieces of art are perfect. I really love the idea of collaborative art because the end result is really fun and exciting to watch.
