an interesting way to present artwork?

Question

other than in a book, as every other person in my class is doing that.
the project is a collection of illustrations of people, if that helps at all.

Answer 1

You could try your local shops to see if any of them have an old dummy you can have that is no longer used in the shop window and attach your pics to him/her. I tried to get one for my degree show though and they aren't easy to come by. Good luck kid.

Answer 2

Extra information would useful, i.e. what kind of class and what grade level.
>Rather than a book, compile all the drawings on a large sheet of formcoare board, available at art supply stores ( JoAnn etc $13.99 32" X 40") Connect the illustration with additional drawings between the papers.
> Hang pages on monofilament thread ( fishing line) so that it can rotate and freely move. Weight the bottom to stabilize. Suspend from ceiling: pole in doorway etc.
>Construct a tall box or triangular shape (out of foamcore) enabling viewing of illustrations from all sides.
>Construct box with windows. Position illustrations on outside of box and inside--view inside ones thru windows.
>Create a book with pages that fold open to expand the viewing area. A page will fold out, another page folds up and another one down. Or take that one step more and make one page that unfolds on all three sides, then those extra pages can unfold over and over.
> Create a vertical holder similar to a CD/DVD rack where the illustrations would swing out to be viewed.
>Design an accordion style album.
Good luck.

If your presentation is sometimes a bit scruffy, or if you don't have much time, there is a great artist, Dan Eldon, who presents his work like a giant scrapbook - looks great!

Or if it has to be neat, I like a technique I think is called "window-framing" with thick board, where you mount your work and then put a piece of board over the top with square holes cut out of it to see your work through..

I'm currently making a book in the style of the content...
eg. Focus on Andy Warhol = book in the shape of a giant Cambells soup can!
It's still a book but it's funky!
Lots of people in my class are doing that sort of thing, it's funny watching people lug giant cardboard shapes into school :o)

Answer 4

Enlarge your illustrations as best you can and the put them in a collage, perhaps with some pen and ink or charcoaled illustrative background scattered throughout the composition.

Best of luck!

Answer 5

Perharps you could present them all on a large board?

What about building a human shaped model out of the pictures?

Answer 6

Scan your work at a high resolution.
Go to xerox or other copier and print them out as a poster so everybody see the whole picture.

Answer 7

You could mount them with pre-cut card frames and paint them to match, or contrast with, the pics themselves.

Or try and find something relating to each subject and place it next to the pics as a tactile reference to the subject.

Answer 8

Put them all with a computer border surround. Toolbars, trays..etc.
Would look real modern.
"How we may view art in the future."

Answer 9

present it with style,with confidence and be proud of what you have done be cool and you will be slamming, the styling in the class
