新课标人教版选修六unit1 Art Using languagethe Best of Manhattan’s Art Galleries(曼哈顿艺术画廊荟萃)教学设计思路一、Teaching aims:1,Knowledge aim.It is about the words and phrases of this lesson, students can acquire some knowledge of English language and culture about western art.2,competence aim.I expect that it helps students develop their ability of expressing their ideasfreely ,besides, students can get detailed information from the text by skimming the lesson.3, Emotion ,attitude and value aim.This aim is designed to help students develop their interest in art ,they can adopt a positive way to enjoy their life.二、Leading-in:1,Q1:Have you ever been to any galleries before?Q2:Do you think visiting galleries is interesting?Key:Visiting galleries can not only bring people wonderful feelings but also teach them many things2, Preview new words:Preference avenue appeal fragile reputation civilization Egypt Egyptian Visual fragrant contemporary三、Teaching procedures:Step1. Fast-ReadingThis part can be divided into two parts, they are Fast reading and Careful reading. Fast reading, it aims to help you have a general understanding of the whole text. In this part, I design four questions for students.Q1: what’s the main idea of the passage?key:The passage mainly introduces five art galleries of ManhattanQ2: where are the five galleries?Q3: Where may you see this passage?Key: in a guidebook(旅游指南)Q4: Who maybe the passage is designed for?Key: touristsStudents can master the structure of the text by learning the whole text.Step 2.Careful -readingit aims to help students to get detailed information which can help you have a better understanding the text.1, About the Frick Collection. Here, one question is designed for studentsWhat can you do in the Frick Collection?(在弗里克收藏馆你能做些什么?) Key: pre-twentieth century western paintings, Henry Clay Frick’s house and garden This question can absorb students’ attention to the content of the Frick Collection, by the way, students can know a famous figure named Henry Clay Frick as well as his contributions to the Frick Collection2,About Guggenheim MuseumI design some steps for students to follow, namely, the exhibition(superb modern paintings, sculptures , drawing impressionist as well as the post-impressionist paintings) ,the museum building ( fragile, white seashell),the best way to enjoy the exhibition and an excellent restaurant(students can have their meals here during their visit in the museum) These steps will help students practice their logic ways of thought and their memory, some useful vocabularies can be presented to students.3,Metropolitan Museum of Art.This part is designed to enhance students’ recognition of the art’s historical status in the development of the human civilization, art as an important part of the human civilization acts as one way of spreading culture among the countries all over the world. Some typical countries are mentioned in this part, such as America, Europe, China, Egypt, other African countries and South America. Students can experience ancient ways of living by themselves in this museum if they have chance to visit this museum. Some concrete exhibitions are introduced in this part, such as Egyptian temple, a fragrant Ming garden, a typical room in an 18th century French house.4,About the museum of Modern art.As the modern art is mentioned as one style of the western painting in the first lesson A short history of western art, students must be familiar with the modern art as well as its characteristics, in this period, modern art can act as one bridge to narrow the gap between the theory of the style of the modern art and its typical paintings as examples. In this part, some famous artists are introduced such as, Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso and Matisse , they are all world-famous artists, their paintings are well accepted by people of all ages and from home and abroad.5, About Whitney Museum of American artThe Whitney Museum of American art is also very interesting, students can find the information that contemporary American painting and sculpture are exhibited here, If you are eager to learn more about contemporary American painting and sculpture in short time, you can visit this gallery, as the exhibition here changes all the time. As important form of entertainment, videos and films are also shown here.All of these galleries enable students t have a better understanding different styles of painting, this lesson will help students hold a right viewpoint of value and positive attitude towards life, besides students’ ability of appreciating art can be well developed.The initiative aim of the lesson may be achieved easily. In this part, I will introduce the five galleries one by one, in this process, students should make every chance to acquire needed knowledge to enhance their ability of using English flexibly, for example, students can achieve the knowledge aim by reading the text in details and the culture of western art can be plugged into their knowledge structure. For more information, students can read the text carefully as the information is involved in the introduction of the five galleries.This process is perhaps boring ,but it is well worth doing, since reading as an important approach to getting English knowledge for students of ESL( English as a second language) is unavoidable and necessary. In this process, teacher as an instructor and supervisor plays an important part in guiding the students’ learning, Besides, teacher’s status here cannot be replaced, the teacher’s value can be represented and shown here, meanwhile, teacher should praise students to perform their task individually and the error is permitted here, as the error is the initiative source of finding the right answer, student’s self-confidence can be established in this process. If necessary, students should find more approaches to putting English into practice, because as communicative tool, English language should be focused on theusage in daily life ,especially when we are having an English lesson, as the contextual situation should be laid for ESL learners.Step3.DiscussionIn this section, I design a discussion, students can practice their oral English and their way of thinking in English language by recalling what we learn, discussing with their partners ,only in this way, students can express their ideas freelyI will provide them with some necessary words and sentence patterns in case that students can use them. For example, gallery, collection, museum, exhibition, art, painting, sculpture, drawings, display etc. some useful sentence patterns, I’d prefer…I’d rather…I’d like… I have a preference for… Because … as… since… this process is designed to develop students’ oral ability as well as their awareness of cooperation.This process is followed by examples about the usage of the above words ,expressions and sentence patterns.Topic for Discussion:Which one do you like best among the five galleries? Give your reasonsIf I have a chance to visit these galleries, I’d prefer to visit…Because I like…,I think it is well worth a visit.In the last section, I design an assignment for students aiming to help students consolidate the knowledge. The assignment is mainly about the usage of English language. In the meantime ,some famous paintings drawn by world- famous artists are also presented to students, this is also the reflection of the third learning aim, namely, emotion, attitude and value aim, students’ awareness of pursuing after the cause of arts will be aroused, you never know.Homework:1. Write a short passage about the five galleries.2. Finish all the exercises on the book学情分析本人执教的班级是单县二中二层次班级,在课堂教学过程中学生的互动效果相对较差,学生的基础相对薄弱, 同时学生对教材的把握还不够好.在教学过程中我需要不断的引导和重复一些课堂用语,学生的语言输出能力较弱,在本节课的授课过程中有一部分同学能做到积极参与课堂的活动和交流,部分学生由于对教材内容把握的不好,教材的内容不够熟悉,他们没能很好的参与课堂的互动和交流,这是我下一步教学工作的重点和需要努力的方向.此外,学生没有意识到高中学段英语学习的重要意义以及对未来升学,就业等的重要影响,这就需要教师在日常的教学管理中对学生进行引导和帮助,使学生避免在英语学习上的被动局面和依赖心理.注重培养学生的积极的英语思维能力和积极主动的学习态度,让学生养成听说读写的良好学习习惯,避免英语学习的盲目性,教师在日程教学过程中要使学生认识到:英语不仅是学生升学的一个手段而且也是学生进行交流沟通的一门重要的语言,教师要鼓励学生在英语课堂上多说多练多交流,使英语课真正的活起来.课堂教学效果分析本节课的授课过程中我设计了以下几个方面的问题:1 , 新课导入: Have you ever been to any galleries before?Do you think visiting galleries is interesting?从课堂实际效果来看,学生的参与度和达成度都不够好,这主要表现在,一是学生对问题没有很好的了解和把握,此外,学生在关于艺术的文化知识方面尚有欠缺,教学建议: 在设计新课导入时,教师要做到既有利于课堂教学的顺利导入又要切合学生的实际知识水平.2, 在Fast reading 部分我设计的问题能紧扣课堂教学目标,如:(1)How many galleries mentioned in this text? What are they?这个问题从难易程度上来说属于简单问题,而且与课文整体结构结合紧密,这个问题的达成度较高,这类问题也适合学习程度不太好的学生做,这对于提高这类学困生的学习积极性和课堂参与度有很好的借鉴意义。

高二人教新课标选修6 unit 1 Art课文翻译 Reading 1 A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. Atypical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created a feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evidentthat ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters likeGiotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance (15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values gradually replaced those held in the Middle Ages. People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess their own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions, as wellas their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in the wall at a real scene. If the rules of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence,oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous. Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal, from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris. The impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angry about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous. Modern art (20th century to today) At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepted as the beginning of what we call "modern art". This is because the Impressionists encouraged artists to look at their environment in new ways. There are scores of modern art styles, but without the Impressionists, many of these painting styles might not exist. On the one hand, some modern art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates on certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them. On the other hand, some paintings of modern art are sorealistic that they look like photographs. They styles are so different. Who can predict what painting styles there will be in the future? 西方绘画艺术简史 艺术是受着人民生活习俗和信仰的影响的。

马谢·布鲁尔建筑师中的“雕塑家”
马谢·布鲁尔:建筑师中的“雕塑家”■ 江滨 王飞扬“结构不仅仅是解决方案的手段,也是一种原则和激情。
”[1] —— 马谢·布鲁尔(Marcel Breuer)(图1)图1 马谢·布鲁尔马谢·布鲁尔(Marcel Breuer,1902年-1981年)出生于匈牙利,是包豪斯(Bauhaus)设计学院的第一批硕士毕业生。
他曾与格罗皮乌斯(Gropius)合作从事建筑设计,并展现出异于常人的天赋。
布鲁尔的建筑作品和设计理念影响了美国整整一代人乃至全世界的建筑师,著名的美籍华人建筑师贝聿铭(Ieoh Ming Pei)就是他的学生。
此外,布鲁尔在家具设计方面同样有着很深的造诣,他设计的瓦西里椅(图2)(Wassily Chair)被称为“20世纪10把最重要的椅子之一”[2]。
布鲁尔见证了建筑设计中现代主义风格的崛起、繁荣以及后续转变为国际主义风格的整个过程,也是这个过程的参与者与推动者。
他的建筑项目包括艺术博物馆、图书馆、大学教学楼、办公楼和住宅,其中比较著名的有:盖勒一号住宅(Geller House I,1945年)、沙拉·劳伦斯大学剧院(the Sarah Lawrence College Theatre,1952年)、巴黎联合国教科文组织大楼(UNESCO Headquarters,1953年-1958年)(图3)、圣约翰修道院教堂(Saint John's Abbey Church,1953年-1961年)、比坚科夫百货公司(De Bijenkorf,1955年-1957年)、凡·利尔办公大楼(Van Leer Office Building,1958年)、IBM法国研究中心(1958年- 1962年)(图4)、惠特尼美国艺术博物馆(Whi t ney Museum of Ameri c an Art,1966年)、美国住房和城市发展部大楼(the HUD Building,1963年-1968年)(图5)、玛丽大学建筑(University ofMary Buildings,1967年-1968年)。
英语人教必修6第一单元教案设计
Unit 1 Art教材分析I.教学内容分析本单元的中心话题是西方绘画艺术的历史、中西方各种艺术形式与风格,各时代的著名画家以及他们的作品。
听说读写等语言知识和语言技能主要围绕“绘画艺术”这一主题设计的。
本单元引导学生讨论这些问题,目的在于让他们了解绘画艺术及其各个历史发展时期的不同风格,培养他们对艺术的兴趣。
Warming up部分共有四个问题,引导学生讨论本单元出现的所有绘画,包括宗教绘画、文艺复兴时期的绘画、印象派风景画和抽象画等。
通过为教室选张贴画、为家居选布置画、谈个人对绘画等艺术的喜好等活动,让学生交流对绘画等艺术形式的认识,并在此过程中学习本单元即将出现的生词。
Pre-reading部分有三个问题,引导学生回顾在画廊或书本上见过的绘画。
尤其要学生回顾所见的西洋绘画和著名的画家,这和“热身”部分的讨论有机地联系起来,帮助学生认识国画和西洋画的不同特征、代表性作品及画家。
Reading部分主要介绍西方绘画史。
文章开头阐述导致艺术发展的因素:生活方式和人们的信仰,并由此得出结论:西方艺术不断变化发展,而中国艺术相对保持稳定。
随后文章从四个方面介绍了主要的西方艺术绘画流派。
中世纪的绘画主题主要与宗教有关,这个时期的作品充满了宗教符号,表达作者对上帝的崇敬和热爱。
直到13世纪,意大利画家乔托(Giotto)才开始描绘现实的宗教活动。
文艺复兴时,人们的思想和价值观发生了根本性的变化,绘画主题从宗教转向人与自然,绘画手法更为现实。
意大利画家马萨乔(Masaccio)采用透视法绘画,开创了现实主义绘画的新纪元。
19世纪晚期,欧洲的工业化导致了巨大的社会变革,也使绘画风格产生了变化。
在法国的巴黎出现了印象派艺术画家,他们走出家门,捕捉瞬间作用于物体的光线。
印象派绘画一段时间引起了争议,但如今被公认为现代艺术的开端。
无论是抽象画还是现实画,都得益于印象派艺术的启发。
阅读文章中有四幅图,分别为:1.亚博拉罕接待天使(大圣母教堂侧壁)432—440 ——中世纪 2.巴۰卡斯蒂利昂伯爵像(拉斐尔)1515 ——文艺复兴3. 日出(莫奈)1872-1873——印象主义4.海边人物形象(斯塔尔)1952——现代艺术Comprehending部分设置了四个练习。
课件12:Using Language

十个著名建筑方案
方案一:[公共建筑] 聚焦80岁的弗兰克·盖里聚焦80岁的弗兰克·盖里著名的建筑师盖里满80岁的时候,经济衰退影响了他最后设计的一些重大的建筑项目。
大师的失望与希望弗兰克·盖里(Frank Gehry)在今年二月底满了80岁。
他是世界上仍然健在的最著名的建筑师。
他也是从弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特(Frank Lloyd Wright)以来,美国建筑界最重要的人才。
他的公司——盖里建筑事务所(Gehry Partners)已经采用了先进的数码设计程序,在世界各地推出了许多标新立异的建筑。
“迪斯尼音乐厅”(Walt Disney Concert Hall)的成功——在声学和建筑学上取得的胜利,巩固了他与洛杉矶有时不稳的关系。
他于1947年将家从多伦多迁移到了洛杉矶。
盖里成了一个令人惊奇的流行文化的偶像。
他为时尚商店蒂凡尼公司(Tiffany)设计了珠宝系列;他在已故电影导演西德尼·波拉克的纪录片中出演主角;参加了动画片《辛普森》(The Simpsons)的拍摄。
他继续参加新的设计工作,设计了阿布扎比的古根海姆博物馆(Guggenheim Museum),并且帮助改进了华盛顿的艾森豪威尔(Dwight Eisenhower)纪念碑的设计。
可是,如果说,盖里现在是站在一个山顶上——他耗费的他的职业生涯的许多时间努力攀登这个山顶。
他受到一种强烈的雄心壮志的驱动。
这种雄心壮志经常隐藏在他的质朴无华的外表下面——然而,此刻,这个山顶本身在他的脚下开始崩溃。
在许多重要的建筑师和盖里在十年中成为全球名星——并且,私人和政府客户都乐意为各种创新的建筑提供资金之后,对新建筑的投资仿佛一夜之间消失。
所有问题中最让盖里烦恼的是,他认为是他的职业生涯的顶点的两个建设项目被推迟。
这两个项目,一个是洛杉矶的“格兰德大道”(Grand Avenue)混合用途开发工程;一个是纽约布鲁克林的“大西洋院”(Atlantic Yards)开发工程。

尤其特别的是,美术馆所举办的年/双年展,总是为年轻的和不算有名气的艺术家的作品提供集中展示的机会。
馆藏艺术品的材质和媒介形式多样。

其中大部分的创办者都有显赫的家境:父亲均为工业巨头的让·保罗·盖蒂(Jean Paul Getty)和伊莎贝拉·斯图尔特·加德纳(Isabella Stewart Gardner),而葛楚·范德伯尔特·惠特尼女士(GertrudeVanderbilt Whitney),也不例外。
然而,在惠特尼美术馆的历史介绍中,第一句却以雕塑家身份的惠特尼切入:“雕塑家葛楚·范德伯尔特·惠特尼,代表着彼时美国在世艺术家,创造了惠特尼美术馆。
”(The Whitney Museum of American Art wasborne out of sculptor Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney’s advocacy on behalf of living Americanartists.)对惠特尼雕塑家身份无意的加以突显,暗示着这位私人美术馆创办者,轨迹与同时代的其他藏家不同,可谓甚是戏剧性。

人教版英语选修6课文原文及课文译文Unit 1 Art 第一单元艺术ReadingA SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTINGArt is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones. Starting from the sixth century AD.The Middle Ages(5th to the 15th century AD)During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artistof this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created a feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way.The Renaissance(15th to 16th century)During the Renaissance, new ideas and values gradually replaced those held in the Middle Ages. People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life.At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess their own paintings, so they coule decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements.One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the rules of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence,oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous.Impressionism(late 19h to early 20th century)In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal,from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived andworke in Paris.The Impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angry about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous.Modern Art(29th century to today)At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepeted as the beginning of what we call "modern art". This is because the Impressionists encouraged artists to look at their environment in new ways. There are scores of modern art styles,but without the Impressionists, many of these painting styles might not exsist. On the one hand, some modern art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates n certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them. On the other hand, some paintings of modern art are so realistic that they look like photographs. These styles are so different. Who can predict what painting styles there will be in the future?西方绘画艺术简史西方艺术风格变化较大,而中国艺术风格变化较小。
博物馆在“艺术走出去”中的意义与策略
博物馆在“艺术走出去”中的意义与策略作者:张瀚予谢大京林一来源:《中国美术》2021年第01期[摘要] 艺术博物馆是重要的艺术作品收藏集合地和展示平台。
自20世纪30年代中国的博物馆与国外政府、机构合作举办海外展览以来,已有不少中国的艺术家和作品通过博物馆这一平台走出国门,越来越多来自世界各地的公众通过海外展览接触到了中国的艺术家和作品。
本文将从这一案例开始,回顾中国博物馆“走出去”的早期情况。
此外,文章将梳理在20世纪崛起并引领美国成为新的世界艺术中心的美国博物馆的特点,为我国艺术博物馆更好地“走出去”提供一种参照。
最后,本文针对中国艺术博物馆近年来在对外实践工作中呈现出来的特点和问题,提供一些分析和对策。
[关键词] 博物馆海外展览艺术史诠释合作一、一个缘起:伦敦中国艺术国际展览会——中国博物馆早期参与的官方海外展览(一)背景与疑问20世纪20至40年代,中国美术界开始越来越多地在国际艺术世界发声,渐渐形成了输出文化艺术的自主意识。
在这一时期,不少展览在海外成功举办,这些展览主要包括艺术家个人展览、艺术教育院校教学展览、博物馆所藏古代艺术作品展览,以及抗战主题展览等几种主题类型。
这些展览中的大部分是在艺术家个人及其拥有的资源的推动下才得以举办的。
这些展览让越来越多的中国艺术家走出国门,走入世界美术的视野。
它们为当时正在国外留学的年轻艺术家及国内的艺术人才提供了重要的展示平台,也向世界展示了中国美术的现代化进程及国家形象。
在这一时期,一批通过中国博物馆、海外政府和机构共同组织的展览而走出国门的中国艺术品于1935年11月28日开始在“中国艺术国际展览会”(International Exhibition of Chinese Art)展出。
在随后持续三个多月的展期中,四十多万欧洲观众涌入展厅欣赏了这些来自遥远东方的艺术作品。
此次展览获得了很大的成功。
然而在展览的筹备阶段,当时的博物馆管理人、学者对于是否能够将大批珍贵的藏品送去欧洲进行展示持有两种对立的声音。
