  1. Rights, respect and responsibilities at Year 7 Suggested teaching ideas and supporting resources: visual art Compiled for HIAS by Dylan Theodore

  2. Ideas and stimuli for expressing responses to rights issues using art with a public message

  3. Art with a public message: how do they do that? • Have you seen TV programmes, photographs, pictures or films that make you think about an important issue? • Do you know of any images, adverts or films that try to persuade you that there is something wrong in the world that needs putting right? • What did the artist do to make you stop and think like that? How did he or she make sure their work gave out a strong message that you could not ignore?

  4. Art with a message: how do they do that? • Take a look at the following images and ask yourself: are they just for fun, or is the artist trying to say something important too? • What media, materials and techniques is the artist using?

  12. Art with a message: how do they do that? • So, the artists are using jokes, humour and ridiculous situations. • They also seem to be using contrast. • They take something ordinary and then put something unexpected alongside. There is a twist or surprise that makes you look twice, or think again. • What is the twist or surprise in each image ? • They are also using line drawing (cartoon), photography, people as models and digital manipulation.

  13. Art with a message: how do they do that? • Some images use a surprising contrast to catch people’s attention and make them think about what they are seeing, and what the message is. • However, the aim is not always to make you laugh. Some images use a more disturbing or unpleasant twist.

  25. Art with a message: how do they do that? • Sometimes artists use devices such as masks, puppets, overheard conversations, captions and speech bubbles. • Often these tell us what is really going on in an ordinary situation, and what effect it is having on someone. We are not just given the straight message – the device helps us think about the importance of the message. • What difference do the masks make to the next image?

  27. Art with a message: how do they do that? • Some artists just say it straight: “This is terrible, it should not happen. Why does it have to happen?”

  29. Art with a message: how do they do that? • Other artists want to say that people can make things better: “People can have their rights upheld – having a peaceful life and enough food for the family is possible for everyone!”
