Created “superflat” art
Superflat – “flattened forms in Japanese graphic art, animation, pop culture, and fine art, along with the shallow emptiness of Japanese consumer culture” – Takashi Murakami
America adapted superflat in the 1990s and titled it “SoFlo”

TAKASHI MURAKAMI
Mexican born artist, and attended school in Madrid
Works primarily in drawing, sculpture and installation
Quoted to be “one of the most influential artists of this decade, and probably the next one too.” – Francesco Bonami (accomplished Italian art curator)
Created La DS (right) in 1993,he dissembled and reassembled his Citroen DS while removing the center pieces.
GABRIEL OROZCO
Created Samurai Trees (right) to reference reality through an abstract medium
The color lay-outs on the paintings are done in relation to how the “knight” piece in chess is able to move.
Created the designs for the painting with a computer program in order to merge traditional art with modern techniques

GABRIEL OROZCO
Iranian artist, now resides in upstate New York
Attended Rhode Island School of Design and Art Institute of Chicago, acquiring her BFA in 1997 and MFA in 2004
Creates theatrical videos with dark themes using recycled elements such as scrap paper and orange peels (right)
While her work is often categorized as fantasy/fiction, she personally believes they express specific emotions
LALEH KHORRAMIAN
Pairs eerie music with bizarre animation to create atmospheric pieces that enthrall the viewer
The backgrounds for her pieces are extreme close-ups of monotype prints (right)
Highly inspired by non-human subjects, because she lacks the abil ity to direct

LALEH KHORRAMIAN
Title: Old and New
Age Group: 3-6 th grade
Big Idea: Technology
Time: Two 50 minute class sessions
Materials: Styrofoam, Ink, Pencils, Paper
Purpose: Students will create traditional art through printmaking, but cover a technological topic. Merging old styles of art with new content.
ALTERED TECHNOLOGY (PROJECT)
Procedure:
Day 1: I will demo all of the artists shown in this slide, and give the students ideas on how merging technology and traditional art can interact. I will pay special attention to Takashi Murakami’s superflat style and Laleh Khorramian’s monotype backgrounds. By the end of class students will create a design they want to print next class.
Day 2: Students will trace their designs onto styrofoam to transfer the marks. Once their pattern has been traced, students will come to a print station with the teacher and roll out ink onto their styrofoam. Once inked, students will press paper onto the styrofoam and have their completed prints
