Emotions in Art

Emotions in Art Starter Activity

Emotions in Art

Asking students ‘What emotions do you think of?’ when they look at an artwork is a powerful way to engage with art and an alternative to more formal types of art analysis.

This starter activity, designed to engage your students as soon as the lesson begins, is simply looking at 5 artworks and asking that question. The carefully written teacher notes help you guide your students; however, this is an activity planned so the students take the lead. There are no right or wrong answers!

Included in this download:

  • A 6-slide PowerPoint, pictured above, with 5 artworks to analyse.
  • A 1-page teacher notes page.

There are many more art literacy/art analysis resources on The Arty Teacher website.
