What is a concentration?
So what is a concentration? AP defines a concentration as, "A body of work unified by an underlying idea that has visual coherence." This weekend you will explore the Internet and find a few 'concentrations.' You will need to follow the directions on the handout and submit it to your personal art blog.
Ekaterina Koroleva: a Russian artist living and working in Berlin. She is an illustrator who focuses on art that is mainly figurative. She uses loose, gestural brush marks or pools of ink that blur and bleed. Then she brings the forms together through rigid black pen and ink lines. In some of her figures she has incorporated shapes that repeat and sometimes represent flowers or trees. From looking at her art I believe her work is mostly watercolor and ink. Though she may also do some mixed media etchings. The visual coherence I see is that all her figures/portraits portray emotion and deal with expressive shape, line and color.
