Our class is designed to study Art and Architecture from Around the World. We have many enriching activities, projects and experiences planned for our “Studio” full of creative building materials. This year we will explore the art, architecture, and cultures of Spain and Australia. This class celebrates some of the most amazing architecture and art of the world. By studying and recreating some of these art styles and structures, students will gain an appreciation of history and other cultures.
Areas we will cover include:
Spain - Madrid, Prado and Reina Sofia Museums, Miro, Picasso, Barcelona, Tapas, Gaudi Architecture and mosaics
Australia – Indigenous Art, The Great Barrier Reef, Sydney Opera House, Post WWII-Modernist Architecture
Our final week we will finish projects from both countries and have a museum to share what we have learned. We will paint, build, read, plan, explore, collaborate, discover and create throughout the four weeks of the Summer Program.
