On Monday my sister and I went to the Tauranga Art Gallery for our home work task Excellence in the Arts. The task is E3. Visit an exhibition and review it. Present your review on your blog. The exhibition was called Corrugations The Art Of Jeff Thomson. We went to the gallery after school to have a look at the beautiful art work. There were lots of different things made out of the corrugated iron such as, letter boxers with animals on top of them,chickens, dogs, house and some other random stuff. Overall my favorite piece of art work was the dog because there was so much detail on the dog and it was really cool how there was lots and lots of layers that have been cut to get the dog looking really good. We watched a video on how Jeff Thomson printed onto the metal. First the iron would be flat and he would print onto it, after that he would use the roller to make the iron corrugated.
There was also another exhibition called Painting Mauao: Painted images of Mount Maunganui since the mid-19th century. It was really cool. I loved looking at the paintings of the Mount especially because I live there. My favourite painting was in a separate room with a projector shining on it. The picture was of part of the mount track and the projector projected real people walking past. I thought this was a very clever idea.
