Lesson Plan

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame: Sti Lesson 18: Artistic Persona vs. the Individual

Curated by ACT

The topic of an author's or artist's public image or persona may become more understandable for students with the judicious selection of contemporary musicians who have taken on obvious and sometimes changing personae in their careers. Be it the stance of a rap artist, the artistic phases of David Bowie, or the commercially inspired image make-overs by countless musicians, students will find examples from a field in which they have an interest. The study of such examples will encourage students to gain a deeper appreciation for the complex relationship between the individual and the public image and the resulting impact on the works of the artist.
