The guy on the far left is “supposed to be” abstract art. As for Emo kid, he’s consistent with his minimalism. And it’s kind of original for Jock guy to be the only one to dress someone other than himself—maybe he’s getting some creativity out of the class!
Those “artsy” costumes reminded me that my 12 year old daughter wants me to dress for Halloween. Perhaps I’ll go as a 75 horsepower Evinrude outboard boat motor.
Looks like Emo kid is wearing a skin-colored Borat-style outfit, so he’s not really naked. But even if he were — we’ve seen it all before kid. Seems kind of hard to be non-conformist these days when the Internet pretty much shows everyone the gamut of possibilities (including a lot that you don’t want to see). And being Emo, by definition, means you’re conforming with that particular genre/look.
Up against the competition, here, I’d say that Luann’s dress — while being a perfectly fine bridesmaid dress and a creation that she can be proud of — is still probably the most pedestrian, ordinary, boring entry of the lot from the perspective of it being some sort of unique artistic statement. Oh well. I do like her pose and her confident smile while wearing it.
I really enjoyed the arc about the firefighter’s party for Toni and Brad. I guess she has decided not to use both her and Brad’s last name together? My first thought was how will people know she is married? I’m guessing firefighters don’t wear their wedding rings to work? Just a thought…I’m old-fashioned, I’d hyphenate my last name with my husband’s last name (which I don’t do for various reasons…besides it’d only make my last name even longer!). But, it is a different world for each generation, I guess! Luann must really like her bridesmaid’s dress…by the time the wedding gets here, the dress will be all worn out! =-O Enjoy your day! :)
Looks to me like the guy next to the TV remote is making some sort of rainbow statement. And like everyone got either “wearable” or “art,” but only Jock’s dog actually managed to combine the two…
Man…Is that supposed to be a rip on Trump with the dog and the wig and tie? There is no escape from this crazy campaign it seems. Well, Trump has his problems but he is WAY better than Hillary. You can’t have a corrupt liar as President..Obstruction of Justice is illegal regardless if the Obama justice department is corrupt and not enforcing laws. I cant wait till the election is over.
Another point is that I’m sure that the other students actually designed and made their creations, while Luann only designed hers, and Gunther made it a reality. This is an art class, after all. Still, she’ll probably get an A.
From left to right:1) Colorful abstract art; 2) Dada-esque pop art; 3) Ordinary bridesmaid’s dress; 4) Political caricature art; 5) Nihilist art. The assignment wasn’t to design a “costume” or just “wear something you designed yourself”, it was to create art that could be worn. Luann completely failed to understand the concept. Of course, that means that her project is the very best one!
Luann is quite unoriginal as always. Bet Zebo will rave over her dress as he did before about her art work which was also uninteresting. Some teachers have a fave student that s/he would rave over when there is actually nothing to rave about. Needlessly to say, these students get easy A for putting in almost no effort, thought or anything.
Although, I think the “art” could have been stronger for ALL of the students, I think they each attempted to show an interpretation of wearable art.
.
Now, what I am wondering in regards to Luann, is which of the following three scenarios will be what pans out?
.
A) Professor Zebo likes Luann’s dress, and proclaims it is wearable art because it displays the form of the body nicely…. and she earns an “A”.
.
B) Professor Zebo thinks Luann’s dress is not “art” in terms of the assignment, and instead thinks it is just a piece of clothing pretty much like any other clothing….. and she earns a “C”, “D”, or “F” depending upon how harshly he grades.
.
C) Professor Zebo is either favorable, unfavorable, or neutral about the dress as art…. but in some fashion (pun intended) it is learned that Luann only designed the dress and did not MAKE the dress. To my way of thinking, this could be VERY much against the rules of the assignment. It is in some ways to me like a person entering a baking competition and then bringing a Papa John’s Pizza as their entry because they chose the toppings. In this scenario, it is possible that Professor Zebo would give Luann an “F”.
Professor Zebo’s art class being only in Luannverse (he could be like a 201, 202 art appreciation course) it gives the strip a whole platform of opportunity to express different plot ideas. Plus I love the characters, from Goth boy, to the genial jock, and Zebo himself. Plus maybe Luann is hoping to get an A on her dress, just as Gunther got an A in his engineering class. I think the naked Goth is funny, and Mr. Jock is a real softie, though I would not want to run into him on the football field. I like the young lady as a remote. Comcast maybe? The other student seems to be having streamers on a box he is in. Interesting. Art appreciation means wide open. My only question is besides the maid of honor dress, how does this fold into what is the theme for 2016, the wedding of Brad and Toni?
I still think there is potential that because she did not MAKE the art (dress), she may be in trouble.
.
“Hey, Tom and Padma!”(judges/hosts of the television show, “Top Chef”): “Here is my deluxe pepperoni, sausage, ham, green pepper and onion pizza for my culinary entry on the show!”
.
“Uh, no, I didn’t make the crust. Uh, no, I did not make the pizza…. but I DID design it! I ordered it from the pizza place across the street. Isn’t that ok?”
.
Now, PROBABLY nothing problematic will happen. And, that is ok by me. It need not be a problem in the story arc. I just know that at least from my perspective as a teacher, I would have a problem with Luann not making the dress if it were my class. And, yes, I do know there are many teachers who WOULD NOT have a problem with it.
Is there way to kill off Zebo once and forever? Like the way the Simpsons killed off Maude Flanders and trampled her into the dirt. He’s an insult to higher education.
How do you define “wearable art”? Luann has designed a lovely outfit that can be worn somewhere besides trick or treating or a nudist beach. Is that right, or are the outfits of the other students more correct?
I missed it, but I think the comment that the guy on the far left looks like a car wash brush is a good observation. It does look that, and would scratch my car.
