 Gergely Dudas Search Drawings

Learning Targets

I can...

• Create an original Gergely Dudas Search Drawing using collage techniques learned in class 
• Use shape variation (geometric, organic, free form), line types (horizontal, vertical, diagonal), and color combinations (analogous, secondary, primary) inspired by Hungarian Artist (2019-Present) Gergely Dudas
• Use drawing techniques (shading, blending, overlapping) and design principles (composition, repetition, movement) based on Seek And Find Cartoons

Lesson One
Day One, Art Start

1. Find BB-8 (2024) Gergely Dudas 

2. Read Bear's Spooky Book Of Hidden Things (2018) Gregory Dudas

3. Discussion Questions "Did you ever play "I Spy with my Little Eye" game? What are your favorite games to play at home and in the classroom? What does "I Spy" mean? Where did "I Spy With My Eye" come from? Have you played I Spy games indoors or outdoors? Have you played the I Spy game with friends, family, or adults? How do you play "I Spy with my little eye?" What are the rules of this game? When you play I Spy, do you use yes or no questions to help find the answer? Does I Spy use number recognition or shape identification for young children? Why would visual perception be an important skill for learning to read? What are some of your interests? What do you notice in your surroundings?"

Lesson Activities

1. Use three geometric shapes (rectangle, oval, circle) to create a three dimensional silhouette of a fall animal (fox, moose, squirrel, deer) for the search compositions

2. Add details (eyes, nose, claws) to the three dimensional silhouettes of a fall animal (fox, moose, squirrel ,deer) for the search compositions

2. Sheep Among Goats (2024) Gregely Dudas

3. Discussion Questions "What do you notice is different with the shapes, colors, and arrangement within this artwork? What is the same and different about each picture? What colors are being used in this artwork? Which area of the artwork is emphasized by the artist? How would you describe this artwork to someone who has never seen it? How does the artist use rotation and translation to create a search composition? Do you think a circle or oval could fill the search composition? Do any spaces cover the space exactly? How can you explain the movement of one tile to another tile? Did everyone use the same number of shapes in their search compositions? Why might the number of shapes vary between students? How many different arrangements did you discover?"
