Art Books






Reading about Art, discovering Art Books and sharing about them is one of the things that the kids enjoy doing in the art in the remaining time, once they finish their project.

2009-2010 WHO WE ARE/ QUI NOUS SOMMES

Title: One Object Many Perspectives

Yet, under the second planner "Who We Are" and its central idea "Understanding our differences can help us live peacefully with others" and under the concept of "Perspective", the students observed the same object, a palette, and drew it, each one on his own way. Then after observing all the drawings they realized how each one of them had his own perspective of the same object that they had to reproduce. Keep posted and wait for the photos as soon as possible.
