Question Description

Step One: Watch these Videos

Watch this short video Pearblossom Highway, about the creation of this photographic montage, or “Joiner”, by contemporary artist David Hockney.

Watch this video in which David Hockney demonstrates and explains how and why he makes joiners.

Step Two: Write your Reflection

In 600 to 750 words, reflect on the reasoning behind Hockney’s approach to making joiners and how they change our experience of seeing. As you reflect, select one of the joiner images (below) and compare it with The School of Athens (also below). Be sure to include direct references to specific areas of the image you select and discuss.

  1. How is the execution of a joiner is similar to or different from the way a painter makes a painting using brush and paints?
  2. How is perspective in a joiner very different from that in a traditional painting, such as The School of Athens, by Raphael, below?
  3. How does this approach impact the way a viewer experiences time in the image?

Before you submit your reflection, take a little more time to proofread your work to make sure that what you write actually conveys what you intend to say.
