Curriculum: Computer

After exploring The Aztec Empire and an exhibition of original works by artist Keith Haring at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, students from throughout New York City created their own digital animations in Flash MX inspired by the works on view at the museum.

This spontaneous explorative project allows students of all ages to open up and make free associations with positive results.

Using Haring's Subway Drawings as a starting point, this project emphasizes the use of personal icons and symbols through traditional drawing as well as computer-generated graphics.

This lesson helps students explore the creative possibilities of using language to interpret art.

Integrating art and music, this cohesive lesson seeks to teach students the fundamentals of graphic design by creating their own Haring-inspired CD Covers.
