  1. Visual/Auditory Representation of Poetry assignment and samples Wade McClave The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, mixed media, 1995

  2. Overview Over the centuries, artists have felt inspired to analyze and interpret poetry through a variety of mediums: paintings, musical compositions, sculptures, dance, videos productions, etc. The artist does not simply restate the poem, but works to analyze and express an interpretation of the poem which reflects larger thematic elementsor meaning.

  3. Assignment For this assignment, you will have the opportunity to express your understanding of a poem in a medium that is not written. You will need to select a poem, read and understand the message, contemplate the imagery and language, and then, create a visual/auditory representation of the poem. You will also be required to submit a one-page, 12-pt font, typed explanation of how the details in your representation reflect the elements of the poem. See rubric on Sharepoint.

  4. Poetry Selection Please select a poem that is in your textbook. It does not have to be a poem that we have studied in class, but, for our in-class reference, choose one of the many in our anthology. Drawn collage inspired by “The Love Song of J.

  7. “[This piece] is a response to the imploding economy, which still affects so many. The text, by 17th century poet John Donne, questions his own faith in God. In the shadow of Wall Street’s crash, it seems freshly appropriate since capitalism and our belief in the value of the dollar, which has no intrinsic worth other than people’s faith in it, is the country’s true religion, and the church to which, against all reason, we remain devoted.” -Schaer Batter My Heart: A Wall Street Valentine Miriam Schaer
