“Weston/de Kooning” art program throughout
the grades
“Have you ever
experienced something so intensely that you have wanted to share that experience with others?” You have
been where art begins.
Art, like life itself, must simply be experienced. The greatest gift you can give a child is that of a new experience.
Under the school-wide theme of “We Are Family”, the art room will be translating
such through an in-depth investigation of three generations of Weston photographers
and Willem and Elaine de Kooning. The specific focuses are outlined below for
each grade level. It is shaping up to be a year of fantastic artistic adventures.
Work
from all grade levels will be part of the art show to be displayed during
Open House, May 18th, 2006.
Please
feel free to drop by the art room to witness the imaginative, creative output
and excitement bouncing off both the tables and the walls on a daily basis.
Read
an overview of this year's art curriculum. (Acrobat Reader required to view.)
"There
Are No Mistakes, Only Happy Accidents,"
is an important credo that exists within
the nooks and crannies of the art
room.
