6 x 18 sheet of black paper
tan burlap, tissue paper, red felt, construction paper in different colors:  green, red, brown, white
book binding glue

Instructions to Lead Lesson:
Talk about Claes Oldenburg as an artist and specifically his “Hamburger” pop art sculpture.


 
The important techniques while creating our hamburger art are:
  • The art must have a plate, a hamburger patty and a bun.
  • You may be creative and embellish your hamburger with anything you’d like to add on top, but your creativity must be a food item. If you’d like ice cream and sardines on your hamburger...the creativity is up to you.
  • When cutting and gluing the items onto the black construction paper mat do not glue the items flat.  Let the food fold and bend off the black mat.  Add texture by folding, wrinkling and bending the paper.  Add texture and shading details by using markers or crayons, or layering papers.  Make the food look tasty and real.
