Summer is a particularly good continuous time to systematically study the arts. The process of art learning is like a door opening to another door, allowing children to understand the larger world through this door. Learning children every day has new inspiration, new ideas, aesthetic and taste may be subverted and challenged.


UN Art has always been committed to broaden children's horizons, contact with different Art materials, link various Art forms and Art projects, and finally achieve the ability of comprehensive cross-border design.


UN Art Summer Camp breaks down into 8 themes, 1 theme per week +2 artists in depth deconstruction:

1. Fine Art (July 4 - July 8)

✅Week1 美术画周 Fine Art Painting Week

 

The history of painting reaches back in time to artifacts and artwork created by pre-historic artists, and spans all cultures. It represents a continuous, though periodically disrupted, tradition from Antiquity.

 

Across cultures, continents, and millennia, the history of painting consists of an ongoing river of creativity that continues into the21st century.

Until the early 20th century it relied primarily on representational, religious and classical motifs, after which time more purely abstract and conceptual approaches gained favor.

 

Developments in Eastern painting historically parallel those in Western painting in general, a few centuries earlier. African art, Jewish art, Islamic art, Indonesian art, Indian art, Chinese art, and Japanese art each had significant influence on Western art, and vice versa

 

2. Sculpture (July 11 - July 15)

5. Social media Art (Aug 1 - Aug 5)

✅Week5 社交媒体周 Social Media Trending Art & Craft Week

Social Media Trending topic is a subject that experiences a surge in popularity on one or more social media platforms for a limited duration of time.

 

Trending topics often evolve around popular cultural occurrences such as current events, celebrity announcements TV premiers, social concerns breaking news and viral content

Social media is home to more than three and a half billion unique users. In other words, that means that more than half of all the people around the world have an account on at least one of the different social networks.

 

When you consider just how many people this is you soon realize that social media can be home to pockets of people who have specific interests, simply

These pockets of people can lead to the creation of a reasonably-sized

online community. In the case of art lovers, this can represent a substantial amount of social media users, though it must also be acknowledged that art itself is something of a broad definition.

 

Things that can be considered art include painting drawing arts and crafts music, literature, and photography. In order to better organize these different groups while still maintaining a loose connection between them, social media can lend a helping hand.

6. Illustration (Aug 8 - Aug 11)

✅Week6 插画周 Illustration Week

 

Illustration is usually a form of graphics that are used for visually explaining a concept or a process to the target audience.You can integrate illustration in books, learning materials, animations, posters, flyers, magazines, movies, video games and in all types of print and digital media. Using illustration you can present any idea or concept in a more interesting manner.

7. Impressionism (Aug 15 - Aug 19)

✅Week7 印象派周 Impressionism Week

The term 'Impressionism' comes from a sarcastic review of

Monet's painting, 'Impression, Sunrise' in 1873.

 

Impressionism was a style of painting that used a more scientific analysis of color to capture the effects of light in nature.

 

The Impressionists painted with small strokes of pure colors which mixed in the eye of the spectator when viewed from a distance.

 

The subject most suited to the Impressionist technique was landscape , but they also painted portraits, as well as still life paintings and figure compositions.

 

Impressionism is now seen as the first movement in modern art, and had a huge influence on the development of art in the 20th century.

 

The Impressionists had to paint quickly to capture the atmosphere of a particular time of day or the effects of different weather conditions on the landscape.

 

The speed of the Impressionists painting technique forced them to sacrifice accurate line and detail in favor of atmospheric effect. Impressionist compositions were strongly

influenced by the development of photography and the discovery of Japanese woodcuts.

✅Week8 数字艺术周 Digital & Video Art Week

 

 

Digital art is an artistic work or practice that uses digital technology as part of the creative or presentation process Since the 1960s various names have been used to describe the process including computer art and multimedia art.

Video art is an art form which relies on using video technology as a visual and audio medium.Video art emerged during the late 1960s as new consumer video technology such as video tape recorders became available outside corporate broadcasting.
