These look so sharp! I love how you used them for the book covers.

Pop Art Music Composers
It is fun to adapt the Pop Art activity for any subject at any level. College students still love to color and enjoy the opportunity to be creative as seen through this project. My Music Appreciation students really enjoyed the opportunity to be artists for a class period when I surprised them with a change-up from our typical work in class. They commented during and afterwards how much fun it was to complete this activity and how it let them return to their elementary school days for a few minutes, putting aside the stresses and challenges of everyday life as a young adult.
THE PROCESS - These are a few images of students hard at work on their composers.
THE RESULTS - These projects turned out so well that we created a collage of four composers to serve as the cover for the Music Appreciation textbooks we created.

I love these so much. 🤩 It’s such a fun ‘what if’ scenario too! Imagine what Beethoven would have composed in reaction to Pop Art, or other 20th century art cultural movements and/or political change. 🤔 🎵
So cool that these fantastic Pop Art examples have become so central to this book writing project. Amazing work, Donnie!

Coloring is the fun part - but getting in close to an image also makes students curious about the subject and drives learning. Love this approach to Pop art! Your students did an outstanding job.
