Space is the breath of art. (Frank Lloyd Wright)

Frank Lloyd Wright is one of the most famous architects ever.  He designed a house over a waterfall (the house was called "Fallingwater") and he started a movement called "organic architecture" in which buildings are designed in harmony with their surroundings.

Question of the Day:  Would you rather be in a city or in the countryside?  When I was young, I wanted to live in the middle of a big, bustling city like New York City, but now that I am old, I really love the peace and quiet of the small town I live in and I think I would prefer the countryside.  Daisy likes to walk on grass now that she's old and the pavement and rocky paths bother her feet, so nothing too rugged.

Warm-up:
Drama 9/10:  Read your Shakespeare scene out loud as if you were your role play character.
Art 8:  Experiment with space.  Try to fill the space in the room with yourself.  Then try to let the space take over.

The above picture shows the difference between positive space (the object) and negative space (the empty spaces around the object).
Theatre Production:   
Think, when we talk of horses, that you see them,
Printing their proud hoofs i' th' receiving earth;
For 'tis your thoughts that now must deck our kings.
What does this mean?  Why is it important for someone involved in theatre production to understand this passage?

Lesson:
Art 8:  Find a picture that deals with the concept of form and space (or take a picture of it).  Be ready to share it at the Zoom meeting on Thursday.

Remember to send me your pressed plant mounted on the background wash you prepared.

Drama 9/10:  Practice your Shakespeare scene (both parts).  Do it out loud.  Move around as if you were the character.
Theatre Production:  Keep working on your theatre history project.

Zoom meetings:
Wednesday, 1:30 p.m. -- A Block (I am at school helping with graduation, so if I am a bit late, be patient).  Remember to be your character and not yourself for the whole meeting.
Thursday, 12:30 p.m. -- C Block -- be ready to show your form and space picture (I am at graduation again, so wait if I'm not there right at the dot).
Friday, 12:30 p.m. -- B Block (Play your role play character!)
